Outage probability analysis for distributed antenna system with cooperative transmission schemes

In this paper we utilize the cooperative transmission schemes in distributed antenna system (DAS). Since the distributed antennas are sufficiently separated with each other, therefore it is reasonable to assume the transmitted signals undergo independent fading channels with non-identical distribution. By using of the moment generation function, we deduced the numerical expression of outage probability from Gauss-Chebychev quadrature. Furthermore we conducted an extensive channel measurement, which verifies the advantage of cooperative transmission schemes under the composite fading conditions.
