<![CDATA[The cooperative communication system functions to eliminate the effect of fading on the wireless channel. In a cooperative communication system, there are a number of relay nodes assigned to help the source transmit information to the destination. Hybrid Relay Protocol (HRP) is a combination of cooperative communication system protocols, namely AF and DF where the relay will choose one of the protocols using hybrid relay selection (HRS). Selection of the type of relay protocol used is based on the largest SNR. In this study, a performance simulation of the HRS cooperative communication system was carried out using the AF and DF relay protocol using the Maximum Ratio Combining (MRCC) technique. The parameter taken as a performance reference is the bit error rate (BER). Based on the simulation results when the SNR is 7 dB, the BER value for the DF protocol is 0, while for the AF protocol the BER value when the SNR is the same is 0.0355. Whereas the BER for the MRC technique at the destantion node has obtained a value of 0 when the SNR is 8 dB for the SC technique the BER value when with the same SNR is 0.0119.]]>
