Abstract :
In this work, we consider the relay selection (RS) method for an Amplify-and-Forward (AnF) relaying system in multi-cell environments. The selection scheme aims to maximize the instantaneous received signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR). We propose an idea of combining RS with interference cancellation (IC) at the receiver. Furthermore, we analyze the system outage probability performance with the proposed scheme. We use approximation approach to simplify the derivation of the probability distributed function (PDF) of the received SINR. The system outage probability bound is also given. Simulation results validate our analysis, and show that our scheme greatly improves the system outage probability as well as bit-error-rate (BER) performances.
