  • Abstract
    Performance of co-operative relaying employing infrastructure based fixed relays having multiple antennas has been investigated. A closed-form expression of outage probability for such a system has been derived when the relay performs selection combining and the destination performs MRC combining of signals. The effect of relay placement on the system performance has also been studied.
