Symbol error probability of decode and forward cooperative diversity in Nakagami-m fading channels
In this paper, we provide closed-form expressions for the symbol error probability of decode and forward cooperative diversity systems, when operating over independent but not necessarily identically distributed Nakagami-m fading channels. The results hold for arbitrary number of relays, and refer to the M-ary QAM and M-ary PSK modulations.
