  • Abstract
    New closed form expressions for the average error rate of MC-CDMA systems in Nakagami-m fading channels are derived based on the exponential approximation of the Q-function. Numerical results by substituting in these expressions are presented and compared to results provided by other researchers using computer simulations or numerical integrations. From the comparison, it is concluded that the derived expressions can be used with good accuracy.
