Abstract

This study presents approximate but simple expression for the average symbol error rate of differentially encoded quadrature phase shift keying (DE-QPSK) and π/4 QPSK with Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) diversity over independent η-µ fading channels. Numerical results demonstrate the error performance for different values of fading parameter µ for Lth order MRC for Format 1 and Format 2. Furthermore, error performance of both modulation techniques has also been analyzed for Nakagami-m, Rayleigh, one sided Gaussian and Hoyt fading as a special case.Cite this ArticleKiranpreet Kaur, T.S.
