Abstract

We present the performance of multi-antenna selective combining amplify-and-forward (SC-AF) two-way relaying systems over independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) Nakagami-$$m$$m fading channels. The outage probability and symbol error probability of our relaying system are derived in closed-form. In order to get additional insights into the impact of system parameters, we consider the analysis of system at high signal-to-noise (SNR) regime. Through over high SNR analysis, we assume that the fading channels are independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.i.d). Also, there is no assumption on the fading parameter, $$m$$m. Moreover, some special cases of practical interest (e.g., Rayleigh fading channels, and single relay system) are also examined. Subsequently, we define an optimization problem using some approximations and then solve it analytically. Lastly, we present numerical simulations to check our analytical formulas.
