Abstract :
The moment-generating function (MGF)-based method, which has previously been applied with great success in evaluating the error probability performance of more traditional space-time block and trellis codes, is equally useful when applied to systems employing super-quasi-orthogonal space-time trellis codes. Its utility in exactly evaluating the pairwise error probability has been demonstrated for both fast and slow Rayleigh fading channels with the results obtainable either in closed form or as a single integral with finite limits and an integrand composed solely of trigonometric functions.
