In this letter, we propose a novel two-way amplify- and-forward (AF) relay selection scheme over independent flat Nakagami-m fading channels. In the proposed schemes, two users first sequentially broadcast their respective information to all the relays. Then, the Nth best-relay perform AF protocol on the received signals sent from the two users and forward them to both users. The Nth best-relay is selected to optimize the end-to- end performance of the system transmission. The performance of the proposed system is quantified by deriving the lower bound of the overall outage probability and average symbol error rate (SER). The effectiveness of our proposed selection scheme and analytical results is verified by simulations.
