Abstract
Asymptotic symbol error probability (SEP) performance with an optimal maximum likelihood (ML) receiver and square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) constellations is investigated for two-way amplify-and-forward (AF) half-duplex relaying networks employing distributed Alamouti space-time block codes (DASTCs) recently proposed by Duong By developing a novel strategy to particularly deal with some specific Gaussian integrals, two asymptotic SEP formulas are derived for both fixed- and variable-gain AF protocols. These analytic results reveal that, when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is large, the diversity gain for the variable-gain AF is 2, whereas the diversity gain function for the fixed-gain AF is proportional to SNR <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-2</sup> ln SNR.
