Abstract
The authors consider transmit antenna selection (TAS) in cognitive multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) relay networks as an interference-aware design for secondary users (SUs) to ensure power and interference constraints of multiple primary users (PUs). In doing so, the authors derive new exact and asymptotic expressions for the outage probability of TAS with maximal ratio combining (TAS/MRC) and with selection combining (TAS/SC) over Rayleigh fading. The proposed analysis and simulations highlight that TAS/MRC and TAS/SC with decode-and-forward relaying achieve the same diversity order in cognitive MIMO networks, which scales with the minimum number of antennas at the SUs. Furthermore, the authors accurately characterize the outage gap between TAS/MRC and TAS/SC relaying as a concise ratio of their array gains.
