The exact general bit error rate (TIER) expression of M-ary square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) for arbitrary M has not been derived so far. In this paper, a generalized closed-form expression for the BER performance of M-ary square QAM with Gray code bit mapping is derived and analyzed in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. The derivation is based on the consistency of the format in signal constellation o[ Gray coding and it has been derived from the results for M-16, 64, and 256.

The purpose of this paper is to theoretically analysis of performance of MRC diversity for detection of M-ary signals on the Rician fading channels. To do it, the difference between the approximation to bit error probability and the exact bit error rate (BER) in evaluating the performance of MPSK signals is investigated by numerical analyses. In addition, the performance evaluation of MDPSK signals in the independent branch diversity is performed by an integral-form expression in case of when MDPSK signal in MRC system is experiencing the Rician fading.

This paper expands an analytical performance model of 802.11 to accurately estimate throughput and energy demand of 802.11-based wireless sensor network (WSN) when sensor nodes employ Reed-Solomon (RS) codes, one of block forward error correction (FEC) techniques. This model evaluates these two metrics as a function of the channel bit error rate (BER) and the RS symbol size. Since the basic recovery unit of RS codes is a symbol not a bit, the symbol size affects the WSN performance even if each packet carries the same amount of FEC check bits. The larger size is more effective to recover long-lasting error bursts although it increases the computational complexity of encoding and decoding RS codes. For applying the extended model to WSNs, this paper collects traffic traces from a WSN consisting of two TIP50CM sensor nodes and measures its energy consumption for processing RS codes. Based on traces, it approximates WSN channels with Gilbert models. The computational analyses confirm that the adoption of RS codes in 802.11 significantly improves its throughput and energy efficiency of WSNs with a high BER. They also predict that the choice of an appropriate RS symbol size causes a lot of difference in throughput and power waste over short-term durations while the symbol size rarely affects the long-term average of these metrics.

In optical system, the signal and additive noise for statistical properties of a variety of ways to evaluate the performance of the system is essential for the optimization. In this paper, performance analysis of spectrum-sliced optical system in the optical pre-amplifier in the receiver the received signal by including the error limits for the bit that is, the bit error rate (BER: Bit Error Rate) required to maintain the average optical power represents the number of photons per bit is included in this paper to digital form, noticeable signal the receiver to calculate the sensitivity of the method for the calculation was performed. The general strength of the transmission of the modulated signal and digital signal transmission was required for the comparison of optical power. As shown in Figure 3, the general strength of the digital signal transmission system for transmitting a modulated signal compared with the case is improved by at least 10dB.

This paper investigates the performance of interference-limited two-way transmission protocols in the Rayleigh fading channels. New lower bound of outage probability and approximate expression of bit error rate (BER) for three-phase two-way relaying (3P-TWR) protocol are derived in closed-form. These expressions are valid for arbitrary signal-to-noise ratio values, numbers of co-channel interferers and amajority of modulation formats employed in the practical system. Then a comparative study is developed for the performance of three two-way transmission protocols, i.e., direct transmission (DT) protocol, two-phase two-way relaying (2P-TWR) protocol and 3P-TWR protocol based on the asymptotic expressions of outage probability and BER. On the basis of the theoretical results, the thresholds on the strength (variance) of direct channel and target rate for the relative performance of different protocols are obtained and the effect of interferences at the terminal and relay on the relative performance is analyzed. The results present key insights on how to choose proper two-way transmission protocol with the knowledge of fading channels, required date rate and modulation format to optimize the system performance in the practical interference-limited scenarios. Simulation results are presented to validate the theoretical analysis.

APSK (Amplitude Phase Shift Keying) digital modulation is characterized by the circular positioning of the transmission symbols in the constellation diagram. Due to such structural characteristics, the peak-to-average power ratio of the APSK modulation is lower than that of the QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation), and the amount of performance degradation over nonlinear channels can be mitigated. The APSK modulation scheme has recently been adopted as satellite communication system standards including the DVB-S2 (Digital Video Broadcasting - Satellite, Version 2). In this paper, a BER (Bit Error Rate) upper bound approximation formula is derived using the channel model with the output power saturation characteristics, and its accuracy is demonstrated. Using the derived formula, the input power level that minimizes the BER is determined. The optimized performance based on the radii ratio of the 16APSK constellation and the channel saturation level is also presented.

In this paper, we propose QAPM(Quadrature Amplitude Position Modulation) modulation scheme for improving power efficiency and we compare existing PSSK(Phase Silence Shift Keying) and QAPM. An existing PSSK Modulation is extension from PSK modulation technique. The conventional PSSK modulation technique can be regarded as an extension from PSK modulation. And this PSSK has better power efficiency than PSK modulation. The Bandwidth efficiency of PSSK is half than PSK, but improved BER(Bit Error Rate) performance. A propose QAPM scheme is build on QAM. And BER performance of QAPM is better than PSSK because BER performance of QAM is better than PSK. In this paper, we compare PSSK and QAPM regard to bit error rate and throughput.

In this paper, we propose an optimal relay selection scheme for decode-and-forward relaying systems. The optimal relay selection minimizes the number of time slots used to relay source's signal and maximizes an end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio. However, decode-and-forward relaying systems require additional overhead for the optimal relay selection. Assuming independent and identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels, we provide exact and closed-form expressions for the outage probability of capacity and the bit error rate for decode-and-forward relaying systems with the optimal relay selection. It is shown that the analytic results are perfectly matched with the simulated ones. When the numbers of relay nodes are 2, 4, and 8, and the numbers of time slots for overhead are 1, 2, and 4, respectively, the proposed system achieves 1 dB, 2 dB, and 3 dB gains at 1% bit error rate, respectively, and 0.5 dB, 4 dB, and 12 dB gains at 1% outage probability for 1 bps/Hz, respectively, over the conventional decode-and-forward relaying system.

In this paper, we have analyzed the BER (Bit Error Rate) performance of MC-CDMA systems under indoor wireless environment with class A impulsive noise suggested by Middleton. For the performance evaluation, we considered from strong to weak impulsive noise characteristics. And we have evaluated the degree of performance improvement by using turbo code as a compensation technique to impulsive noise. From the result of analysis, it is found powerful performance improvement scheme must be adopted in the system under impulsive noise environment, and when turbo code scheme is adopted, system BER performance is improved by the $10^{-2}$. As the impulsive noise characteristics approaches AWGN characteristics, the degree of performance improvement by adopting turbo code become larger.

Relay has been applied various communication environments due to its advantages of performance enhancement in communication systems. In this paper, we analyze the performance of a dual-hop communication system which uses one relay by considering asymmetric communication scenarios. The performance is based on bit error rate. Firstly, we compare the overall performance of dual-hop communication system under symmetric and asymmetric, and then analyze the performance depending on the resource allocation. Energy allocation and relay location are considered in the resource allocation. The performance of overall system for each energy allocation and relay location is analyzed. In addition, we analyze the performance of communication system when both energy and relay location are considered simultaneously. Based on the analyzed performance, we discuss the effect of resource allocation for symmetric and asymmetric environments.
