In this letter, an uncoded cooperative diversity system with a source, two decode-and-forward (DF) relays, and a destination (D) is considered. We propose a hybrid selection and switch-and-stay combining (HSSSC) scheme at D. Furthermore, we also derive the exact symbol error probability (SEP) of thi...
