In this paper, we investigate the performance of a device-to-device (D2D) multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communications using an amplify-and-forward relaying for various energy-efficient modulation schemes. For analysis, transmit antenna selection strategy is employed at the transmitter to select the best transmit antenna which maximizes the received signal power. In the analysis, we optimized the relay location to obtain the lowest outage probability possible and derived the generalized upper-bound average symbol error rate expressions of energy-efficient futuristic modulation schemes such as square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), rectangular QAM, cross QAM, and hexagonal QAM for D2D network. Further, we have derived the ergodic capacity expression to calculate the achievable rates. Comparative analysis of different QAM schemes for various constellation orders is also presented. Furthermore, the impact of the relative position of relay, path loss, and the number of antennas are also highlighted. Finally, the derived analytical results are verified through Monte-Carlo simulations. |
