Abstract

In this paper, the outage performance of an opportunistic amplify-and-forward cooperative downlink cellular system is analyzed. Different from prior works, the randomness of the network topology is taken into account by modeling the user nodes as a homogeneous Poisson point process. Based on this model, outage probability is derived and the impacts of several system parameters are investigated. Under certain conditions, the closed form expression of outage probability is derived. It is found from our results that the diversity order of this opportunistic cooperative system at high signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) is one. Moreover, optimal power allocation can be found from our results to minimize the outage probability.
