Precoding for outage probability minimization on block fading channels

The outage probability limit is a fundamental and achievable lower bound on the word error rate of coded communication systems affected by fading. This limit is mainly determined by two parameters: the diversity order and the coding gain. With linear …

Exact BER analysis for QAM transmission on arbitrary fading channels with maximal-ratio combining and imperfect channel estimation

In this contribution, we investigate the effect of imperfect channel estimation on the bit error rate (BER) performance of uncoded quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) with maximal-ratio combining (MRC) multichannel reception. The propagation …
