Abstract

This paper investigates a two-way amplify-and-forward multiple relaying network (TWMR-AF) and presents a novel relay selection scheme, which is appropriate for different traffic patterns and has very low implementation complexity, rendering it very attractive for practical systems. Assuming the TWMR-AF over Nakagami-m fading, the approximate expression of the overall outage probability is derived, and the diversity and code gains are then obtained. The analytical results indicate that the proposed policy achieves better outage performance than the traditional max-min relay selection scheme, as validated by the simulation results.
