Abstract

In this paper, an equation for the error probability of M-ary frequency shift keying with limiter-discriminator detection in Nakagami fading channels for arbitrary m is derived. The authors do the same for selection combining with L diversity channels for integer m and for switch and stay combining with two diversity channels for m=1 (Rayleigh fading). The error probability for various values of m, L, frequency deviation, and filter bandwidth is computed
