Temporal CSI Correlation in Mixed RF/FSO Cooperative Relaying Systems Under Joint Effects of HPA Nonlinearities and IQ Imbalance

In this paper, we present the performance analysis of mixed RF/FSO system with multiple relays. To select the best relay, we adopt partial relay selection with outdated CSI wherein we investigate the effect of the temporal correlation of the channels. Unlike the vast majority of work, we introduce the impairments to the relays and the destination and we compare the performance against conventional RF relaying systems. We further derive the expressions of the outage probability and the ergodic capacity as well as the bounds to unpack engineering insights into the system robustness.
