Abstract :
The error probability of digital transmission through a frequency-selective channel with random multipath fading due to uncorrelated scatterers is calculated. The error probability is averaged with respect to the randomly varying delays, with a given delay power spectrum. Two coherent receivers, suboptimum without any knowledge of the channel and optimum with perfectly known channel, are compared. The results are applied to continuous-phase-modulation (CPM) signals
