In this study, a binate hop cooperative satellite–terrene link with correlated line‐of‐sight (LOS) components has been considered. The satellite–terrene link is assumed to follow shadowed‐Rician fading. Specifically, higher‐order moments of the considered system have been derived. Using the expression of higher‐order moments, the expressions of the amount of fading and channel quality estimation index of the considered cooperative complex have been obtained. The symbol error rate of the considered cooperative satellite–terrene link for M‐ary phase‐shift keying constellation has been derived and the denouement of signal‐to‐noise ratio and inclination angle has been scrutinised as well. Moreover, outage probability and average channel capacity of the considered system have been derived with the help of the Meijer‐G approach. It has been manifested by simulation and analysis that the performance of the considered system enhances with the inflation in the aggregate of antennas and inclination angle.
