Abstract
- We analyze the error performance of a wireless communication system employing transmit-receive diversity in Rayleigh fading. By focusing on the complex Gaussian statistics of the independent and identically distributed entries of the channel matrix, we derive a formula for the characteristic function (c.f.) of the maximum output signal-to-noise ratio. We use this c.f. to obtain a closed-form expression of the symbol error probability (SEP) for coherent binary keying. The method is easily extended to obtain the SEP for the coherent reception of M-ary modulation schemes. Index Terms--Coherent binary keying, coherent M-ary modulation, Rayleigh fading, symbol error probability (SEP), transmit-receive diversity.
