Abstract

Abstract : Closed form expressions for approximate symbol error rate are obtained using moment generating function for a two branch cooperative communication system over generalised κ − μ and η − μ i.i.d. fading channels for BPSK and QAM modulation schemes. Selective decode and forward protocol is used at the relay transmitter. At the destination maximal‐ratio combining is used. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to verify the analytical results.
