Abstract :
The block error probabilities of noncoherent frequency-shift keying signals in a Nakagami fading channel are presented. The channel fading speed, slow or fast, is considered in evaluating block error probabilities. The effectiveness of diversity combining and error correction coding in improving block error performance is studied
