Abstract
In this letter, we propose a beamforming and combining scheme for a two-way amplify-and-forward (AF) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay network. An approximate expression for the symbol error rate of the scheme in Rayleigh fading for M-ary phase-shift keying is obtained based on the moment generating function of the instantaneous received signal-to-noise ratio. The diversity order is also analytically derived. It is shown by simulations that the proposed scheme outperforms existing schemes for beamforming and combining in two-way AF MIMO relay systems. We also discuss beamforming and combining in a two-way AF MIMO relay system with estimated channel gains.
