communications have recently received growing attentions due to the fact that it enables dynamic wireless data exchange between nearby vehicles, offering the opportunity for safety improvements and information sharing. In this paper, we investigate the performance analysis of a two-way amplify-and-forward (AF) multi-relay cooperative V2V communication networks with MPSK modulation, for two cases where the relays are vehicles or they are access-points of the road. In the mobile-to-mobile communication system considered in this paper, the communication channel is modeled as double-Rayleigh fading channel. We derive the exact symbol error probability (SEP) expressions under the two-phase and three-phase scenarios followed by their upper bound expressions. Then we examine the effect of the relays' position with respect to the source terminals, on their SEP and lastly, the maximum achievable diversity order under each scenario is studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
