In this paper, we consider a Switch and Stay Combiner (SSC) diversity scheme operating over α−η−μ fading channel. New and closed-form expressions for the average output SNR (ASNR), the moment-generating function (MGF), the outage probability (P_out), and the average symbol error rate (ASER) for M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signaling are derived. The expressions are obtained in terms of the well-known bivariate Fox’s H-function (BFHF). It is worth pointing out that the BFHF and the bivariate Meijer’s G-function (BMGF) have recently been used extensively in wireless communications literature to study the system's performance. The evaluated results are plotted for channel parameters of interest, and the effect of fading severity on the combiner performance is studied. Moreover, the results are shown to match those previously reported in the literature for other channel models such as η−μ as a special case, which confirms the validity of the obtained expressions. Also, insights on the optimal choice of the switching threshold are provided.

This article proposes the diversity gain enhancement in layered division multiplexing (LDM) systems by applying maximal-ratio combining (MRC) technique. LDM systems is adopted as a baseline technology of the ATSC 3.0 systems which the two transmission layers are simultaneously transmitted over two different types of fading channels for fixed and mobile services. Hence, the performance analysis of each layer need to be evaluated on different type of fading channel. Starting with the moment generating function (MGF) of the MRC output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), we propose the new method to derive closed-form expressions for average symbol-error rate (SER) of the proposed systems over Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading channels in the presence of error propagation (EP) that is generated from the first layer detection. Analytical results show that the specific value of injection level at the transmitter need to be precisely defined to obtain the best mutual benefit for both LDM layers, and the proposed technique has significant performance advantage over conventional LDM systems. Simulation results demonstrate the tightness of the author’s analysis.

In this paper, we present the end-to-end performance of a dual-hop amplify-and-forward variablegain relaying system over Mixture Gamma distribution. Novel closed-form expressions for the probability density function and the moment-generation function of the end-to-end Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are derived. Moreover, the average symbol error rate, the average SNR and the average capacity are found based on the above new expressions, respectively. These expressions are more simple and accuracy than the previous ones obtained by using generalized-K (KG) distribution. Finally, numerical and simulation results are shown to verify the accuracy of the analytical results.

In this paper, we investigate the end-to-end performance of a dual-hop fixed gain relaying system with semiblind relay under asymmetric fading environments. In such environments, the wireless links of the considered system undergo asymmetric multipath/shadowing fading conditions, where one link is subject to only the Nakagami-m fading, the other link is subject to the composite Nakagami-lognormal fading which is approximated by using mixture gamma fading model. First, the cumulative distribution function (CDF), the moment generating function (MGF) and the moments of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are derived under two asymmetric scenarios. Then, novel closed-form expressions of the outage probability, the average end-to-end SNR, the symbol error rate and the ergodic capacity for the dual-hop system are obtained based on the CDF and the MGF, respectively. Finally, some numerical and simulation results are shown and discussed to validate the accuracy of the analytical results under different scenarios, such as varying average SNR, fading parameters per hop, the choice of the semi-blind gain and the location of relaying nodes.

The exact performance of amplify-and-forward (AF) bidirectional relay systems is studied in generalized and versatile Nakagami-m fading channels, where the parameter m is an arbitrary positive number. We consider three relaying modes: two, three, and four time slot bidirectional relaying. Closed form expressions of the moment generating function (MGF), higher order moments of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), ergodic capacity, and average signal error probability (SEP) are derived, which are different from previous works. The obtained expressions are very concise, easy to calculate, and evaluated instantaneously without a complex summation operation, in contrast to the nested multifold numerical integrals and truncated infinite series expansions used in previous work, which lead to computational inefficiency, especially when the fading parameter m increases. Simulation results corroborate the correctness and tightness of the theoretical analysis.

We analyze the ergodic capacity of a dual-hop full duplex amplify-and-forward (AF) vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) cooperative relaying system over Nakagami-m fading channels. In this context, the impacts of self-interference (SI) at the relay and co-channel interference (CCI) at the destination are taken into account in this analysis. Precisely, based on the analysis of the moment generating function (MGF) of the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), new exact and lower bound expressions for the ergodic capacity are derived. The ergodic capacity upper bound is also derived based on the asymptotic outage probability of the approximated SINR. Monte-Carlo simulation results are presented to corroborate the derived analytical results. Our results show the significant impact of the considered interferences on the system performance. It is shown that the ergodic capacity is degraded when the average SI at the relay and/or the average CCI at the destination is increased. This highlights the importance of taking these phenomena into account in the performance evaluation in order to assess the practical limit of full duplex relaying (FDR) cooperative wireless communications. Interestingly, it is also observed that FDR with SI and CCI still shows a higher ergodic capacity than the interference-free half duplex relaying, especially at medium to high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).

This paper considers power allocation in cellular networks over Rician fading channels. The goal is to improve the power consumption and energy efficiency as well as satisfy as many users as possible subject to user outage probability and normalized signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) constraints. The exact outage probability over Rician fading channels is determined using the moment-generating function (MGF). Further, upper and lower bounds on the outage probability are derived. These are used to characterize the relationship between outage probability and normalized SINR in Rician fading channels. Power allocation algorithms for power minimization and energy efficiency are proposed. Simulation results are presented to compare the performance of the proposed schemes with existing methods in terms of power consumption, throughput, energy efficiency, outage probability, and number of unsatisfied users.

The Fisher–Snedecor (F-S) F distribution has recently been introduced as a tractable turbulence-induced (TI) fading model that fits well with the experimental data. This paper provides a performance evaluation of a free-space optical (FSO) re-configurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted communications (ACs) link over the F-S F TI fading channels, assuming the intensity modulation–direct detection (IM–DD) technique. In particular, novel and closed-form (C-F) analytical expressions for the probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in terms of Gaussian hyper-geometric functions are efficiently derived. Capitalizing on the obtained results, novel C-F analytical expressions for the moment generating function (MMGF), outage probability (OP), average bit error rate (BER) and ergodic channel capacity (Cγ) of the FSO RIS-ACs system over the F-S F TI fading channels are provided and numerically evaluated under the various TI fading severity conditions. Furthermore, the second-order (S-O) statistical expressions for the level crossing rate (LCR) and average fade duration (AFD) are obtained and thoroughly examined for various FSO RIS-ACs system model parameters.
