Performance of a Free-Space-Optical Relay-Assisted Hybrid RF/FSO System in Generalized <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$M$</tex-math></inline-formula>-Distributed Channels

This paper investigates the average symbol error rate (ASER) performance of a dual-hop hybrid relaying system relying on both radio frequency (RF) and free-space optical (FSO) links. Specifically, an RF link is used for supporting mobile communication, whereas an FSO link is adopted as the backhaul...
