Popis: We analyze the outage performance of the cooperative relay with the decode- and-forward protocol under Rayleigh fading channels. The technique of orthogonal space---time block coding is applied at the links of source-relay, source-destination and relay-destination. A closed-form expression for the outage probability is derived. Simulation results demonstrate the theoretical solutions.
