To enhance the reliability of long wireless link, a relay is placed between transmitter and receiver\nwhich break the link into two parts: transmitter to relay called 1st hop and relay to receiver called\n2nd hop; such arrangement is called two hop wireless links. In two-hop wireless communication\nsometimes 1st and 2nd hops are affected by different types of fading called asymmetric fading environment.\nIn this paper we consider four different combinations of Rayleigh and Nakagami-m\nfading on 1st and 2nd hop to observe the profile of combined pdf (probability density function) and\ncdf (cumulative distribution function). With the help of cdf we determine the variation of outage\nprobability of mixed fading. Finally we plot the SER (symbol error rate) against the SNR (signal to\nnoise ratio) of the 2nd hop for all possible combinations of the two fading taking the SNR of 1st hop\nas a parameter. Although recent literature deals with asymmetric fading environment but in this\npaper instead of details statistical model of such fading we provide the relative scenario of mixed\nfading on 2-hop wireless link.
