Abstract
In this paper, we analyse the symbol error rate (SER) performance of adaptive relay selection schemes (ARS) in a general dual-hop multiple-relay network. Specifically, we provide a closed-form SER expression for ARS which is tight over the whole signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region. In addition, the derived SER can be readily extended to conventional relay selection schemes, i.e. amplify-and-forward relay selection (AF-RS), perfect decode-and-forward relay selection (PDF-RS), adaptive decode-and-forward relay selection (ADF-RS), and cooperative-maximum-ratio-combining decode-and-forward relay selection (CDF-RS). Transmit power allocation based on the simplified SER is presented to improve the system performance. The analytical results are verified by computer simulations.
