Abstract
The outage probability of a recently proposed relay network with multiple antennas at the relay is analyzed. The relay uses maximal ratio combining to combine the received signals, while it uses maximal ratio transmission for the transmission. It is assumed that the reception at the relay and the destination are corrupted by multiple co-channel interfering signals. Closed-form outage probability expressions are derived when the relay is operated in the amplify-and-forward mode with fixed gain. Both cases of equal power and unequal power interferers are considered.

Abstract
The outage probability of a multiuser amplify-and-forward relaying protocol is investigated. The practical case where there are co-channel interference signals present at the network is considered for the analysis. Exact expressions and closed-form lower bounds are derived for the outage probability. Three network configurations are analyzed based on the presence of co-channel interference in the system.

Abstract
A novel single-integral representation for the bivariate Rician distribution was presented in a recent letter in this Transactions (ibid., vol. 59, no. 11. pp. 2951-2954, Nov. 2011). The expression given for the bivariate Rician probability density function (PDF) [1, eq. (12a)] contains a typographical error. The correct expression for the bivariate Rician PDF is presented here.
