Abstract :
This commentary derives a new exact closed-form expression for the outage probability of an infrastructure-based multi-antenna decode-and-forward relaying system in the absence of direct link, as considered by Katiyar and Bhattacharjee . Our analysis aims to provide a more realistic modeling for the cooperative system under consideration.
