摘要
In this paper,we derive the Symbol Error Probability(SEP)of cooperative systems with incremental relaying and Distributed Relay Selection(DRS).The relays remain idle when the Signal to Noise Ratio(SNR)between the source and destination is larger than T.Otherwise,we activate a relay using DRS.Relay nodes transmit only if their SNR is larger than thresholdβ.If the SNRs of more than two relays is larger thanβ,there is a collision and the destination uses only the received signal from the source.If all relays have SNR less thanβ,no relay is chosen.Thresholdβis optimized to yield the lowest SEP at the destination.Our results are compared to centralized relay selection using opportunistic Amplify and Forward(OAF),Partial and Reactive Relay Selection(PRS and RRS).We compare our results to computer simulations for Rayleigh fading channels.
