Performance Assessment of Channel Capacity of Co-operative Communication based System over Dual-hop Asymmetric RF/FSO system
Cooperative Communication Systems and Relay Selection approaches are recent techniques of wireless communication system that enhance the quality of service (QoS). This research paper probes the execution of the Radio-Frequency and Free Space Optical (RF/FSO) Co-operative system using network of relays. The Co-operative relay system is typically composed of node of a source, the nodes of relays and node of a destination. The source and relay link (S-R link) follow the Generalized-K Fading distribution channel. The link connecting the relay node/device and the destination (R-D link) follows - Fading distribution channel. The relay is considered to adopt according to DF i.e Decode and Forward method of relaying and cooperatively assists in transmission to the destination node from the source node. The channel capacity is modelled using PDF (Probability Density Function) for the - distribution channel of fading for evaluation of the Dual-hop Asymmetric RF-FSO system. The performance and the analytical expressions of the new system proposed i.e. RF/FSO system were verified and validated using Monte Carlo simulation method
