Abstract :
A novel method to estimate block error rates (BLER) in the Rayleigh frequency-nonselective fading channel is proposed. The suggested model is based on a finite state Markov chain. The general analytical results are specialized to the case of differential phase shift keying (DPSK) with coherent detection and to the case of Jakes´ fading spectrum. The validity of the proposed model is confirmed by extensive simulation results.
