“…At high SNR, the average BLER contribution during the decoding of x 1 arising due to the interference caused by the superposition of symbol x 2 at node U is upper bounded as e × a 1,e × ρ S αe a 2,e a 1,e × f 0 a 1,e , a 2,e , ∆ U 1 , α e + 1 − f 0 a 1,e , a 2,e , ζ U 1 , α e + 1 , (40) where the termsc U , α e , β e , µ e , a 1,e , a 2,e , n j , f 0 (•, •, •, •) are defined in(33),(35),(36).…”
