ABSTRACT


In this paper, the lower bound on the average symbol error probability (ASEP) of the amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying mobile-to-mobile (M2M) system over N-Nakagami fading channels is investigated. The moment generating function (MGF) method is used to obtain the lower bound on ASEP for various modulation techniques. Then the ASEP performance under different conditions is evaluated through numerical simulations to verify the analysis. The simulation results showed that the fading coefficient, the number of cascaded components, the relative geometrical gain and the power-allocation parameter have an important influence on the ASEP performance.


Keywords: M2M Communication, N-Nakagami Fading Channels, Moment Generating Function, Average Symbol Error Probability
