An Approximate Error Expression for RQAM Scheme under α-η-µ Fading Conditions

Öz

In this paper, average symbol error rate (ASER) performance of rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (RQAM) scheme is analyzed over α-η-µ fading channels. First, an ASER expression is derived based on Chernoff approximation of Gaussian Q-function. Then, an asymptotic ASER formula is obtained for analyzing system behavior at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. The ASER performance is presented for different modulation levels and fading parameter values. In addition, relative truncation error (RTE) is illustrated in order to determine how many terms are needed for the computation of proposed expression. It is shown that analytical results are in close agreement with exact results.
