Abstract :
The incremental relay (INR) reception with multiple blind/fixed-gain AF relays and selection combining (SC) at the destination receiver is analyzed. The end-to-end performance of INR transmission is evaluated, where bit error rate (BER) of BPSK over i.i.d. Rayleigh fading channels is derived. Numerical results of the BER are presented for performance illustration and comparisons.
