In this paper, the performance of generic orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBCs) introduced by Alamouti [2], Tarokh [3], and Su and Xia [11] is analyzed. We first define one-dimensional component symbol error function (ODSEF) from the exact expression of the pairwise error probability of an OSTBC. Utilizing the ODSEF and the bit error probability (BEP) expression for quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) introduced by Cho and Yoon [9], the exact closed-form expressions for the BEP of linear OSTBCs with QAM in quasi-static Rayleigh fading channel are derived. We also derive the exact closed-form of the BEP for some OSTBCs which have at least one message symbol transmitted with unequal power via all transmit antennas.

We have proposed a soft-decision decoding method for block codes. With careful examinations of the first hard-decision decoded results, The candidate codewords are efficiently searched for. Thus, we can reduce the decoding complexity (the number of hard-decision decodings) and lower the block error probability. Computer simulation results are presented for the (23,12) Golay code. They show that the decoding complexity is considerably reduced and the block error probability is close to that of the maximum likelihood decoder.

In this paper, we have analyzed the block error probability of orthogonal multicarrier 16 QAM signal in a frequency selective Rician fading environment. The block error probability is evaluated with several parameters such as normalized propagation delay $(\gamma/T_S),$, bit energy to noise power ratio $(E_b/N_0),$ and desired signal to undesired signal power ratio (DUR) in fast fading and slow fading channels. In the fast fading channel, The result shows that the block error probability rather in the fast fading channel achieves better performance than in the slow fading channel, when the error correction capability is one or two.

In this paper, we discusses that the theoretical analysis is made for the performance of FS MC-CDMA by the aid of the Nakagami fading channels and the block error probabilities of the FS MC-CDMA in Nakagami fading channel are presented. The channel fading speed, slow or fast, is considered in evaluating block error probabilities. The effectiveness of diversity combining in improving block error performance is examined.

In this paper, for my linear orthogonal space-time block including the orthogonal space-time codes introduced by Alamouti［1］, Tarokh［14］, and Xia［11］, the exact expression for the pairwise error probability in the slow Rayleigh fading channel is derived in terms of the message symbol distance between two message vectors rather than the codeword symbol distance between two transmitted codeword matrices. Using the one-dimensional component symbol error probability, the exact closed form expressions for the symbol error probability of linear orthogonal space-time codes are derived for QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM, and 256-QAM.

In this paper presents equations which describe an average weighted spectrum of errors and average block error probabilities for noncoherent frequency shift keying (NCFSK) used in D-branch maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity in independent very slow nonselective Nakagami fading channels. The average is formed over the instantaneous receiver signal to noise ratio (SNR) after combining. the analysis is limited to additive Gaussian noise.

In this paper, we investigate the error probability performance of noncoherently detected orthogonal modulation combined with Alamouti space-time block coding. We find that there are two types of pair-wise error probabilities that characterize the performance. We employ methods that allow a direct evaluation of exact, closed-form expressions for these error probabilities. Theoretical as well as numerical results show that noncoherent orthogonal modulation combined with space-time block coding (STBC) achieves full spatial diversity. We derive an expression for approximate average bit error probability for-ary orthogonal signaling that allows one to show the tradeoff between increased rate and performance degradation.

Single carrier block transmission with frequency domain equalization(SC-FDE) has been shown to be a promising candidate in ultra-wideband(UWB) communications. In this paper, we analyze the performance of SC-FDE over UWB communications with channel estimation error. The probability density functions of the frequency domain minimum mean-squared error(MMSE) equalizer taps are derived in closed form. The error probabilities of single carrier block transmission with frequency domain MMSE equalization under imperfect channel estimation are presented and evaluated numerically. Compared with the simulation results, our semi-analytical analysis yields fairly accurate bit error rate performance, thus validating the use of the Gaussian approximation method in the performance analysis of the SC-FDE system with channel estimation error.

In this paper, a calculation-efficient method for weight update in the algorithm based on maximization of the zero-error probability (MZEP) is proposed. This method is to utilize the current slope value in calculation of the next slope value, replacing the block processing that requires a summation operation in a sample time period. The simulation results shows that the proposed method yields the same performance as the original MZEP algorithm while significantly reducing the computational time and complexity with no need for a buffer for error samples. Also the proposed algorithm produces faster convergence speed than the algorithm that is based on the error-entropy minimization.
