Outage behaviour and SCK-based power allocation for analogue network coding protocol in cooperative networks.

In this study, the authors consider the communication scenario where two sources communicate with the help of a single relay, modelled as a half-duplex butterfly network. Closed-form expressions of the outage probabilities are derived in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime for the orthogonal amplify-and-forward and non-orthogonal amplify-and-forward protocols. Then the expressions are appr...
