Abstract
This letter investigates the performance of the satellite-terrestrial networks (STN), where a satellite tries to transmit information to a ground user through the help of multiple decode-and-forward relays and the existence of co-channel interference sources. In particular, the full-duplex technique and partial relay selection are applied at the relay to increase the total throughput at the destination, enhance the system reliability, and reduce the complexity. In this context, the outage probability (OP) is computed in a closed-form expression. Numerical results are provided to confirm the accuracy of the proposed mathematical framework. Our findings illustrate that the outage performance can be effectively enhanced by increasing either number of relays or transmit power.
