Performance analysis of analog network coding based two-way amplify-and-forward system in mixed Rician and Nakagami-m fading environment

This paper presents the performance analysis of analog network coding-based two-way amplify-and-forward relaying under mixed Rician and Nakagami-m fading environment. Closed form expressions for both the cumulative distribution function and probability distribution function of the instantaneous end-to-end SNR are derived. Using those, the closed form expressions for the first moment, second moment, and the symbol error rate (SER) for M-PSK modulated signals are obtained. The performance of the system is analyzed in terms of outage probability, average SER, and ergodic capacity. In addition, we investigate the outage probability for high SNR scenario to identify more details of the system performance in depth. Simulations are performed to verify the correctness of our theoretical analysis.
