Abstract
An accurate approximation to the average symbol error rate of hybrid selection/maximal-ratio combining (H-S/MRC) in correlated Nakagami-m fading with positive integer values of m, is obtained by using a Green´s matrix approximation. This approach is valid for different M-ary linear modulation schemes. We illustrate our methodology using M-ary phase-shift keying (MPSK) as an example
