Abstract :
In this paper, the outage probability of space-time coded decouple-and-forward (DCF) relay network in Nakagami-m fading channels is analyzed. We derive both accurate expressions and closed-form bounds of outage probability by investigating the statistic property of sum of Gamma random variables. All the analytical results are confirmed through Monte Carlo simulations.
