User cooperation in wireless communication makes the users cooperate each other by using other users as a relay. A new scheme called coded cooperation was suggested by using user cooperation and channel codes simultaneously. In this scheme, each user partition its data, and the partitioned data is sent by the user’s and partner(another user)’s antennas, respectively. In previous works, it was verified that this coded cooperation have better performance than other relay schemes in Rayleigh fading channel. In this paper, we will show the performance analysis of coded cooperation in Rician fading channel. We develop the bound of bit-error-rate(BER) of coded cooperation in various Rician factor(K).
