  • Abstract
    In this paper, we investigate the performance of an underlay cognitive relay network over α-μ fading channels. In particular, we assume non-identical fading parameters and derive an analytical expression for the outage probability of a dual-hop underlay system subject to a peak interference power constraint. Numerical and simulation results are presented to evaluate the effect of fading parameters on the outage probability of the system.
