Performance analysis of cognitive AF relay networks with multiuser switched diversity in Rayleigh fading channels

Abstract The multiuser switched diversity (MUSwiD) selection schemes are useful in reducing the required channel estimation load in wireless networks. In this paper, we propose and evaluate the performance of cognitive amplify-and-forward (AF) MUSwiD relay networks where a cognitive user is selected...
