  • Abstract
    A new closed form expression for the bit error rate (BER) performance of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) transmissions over frequency selective channels is presented. The expression is obtained through a novel approximation of the Gaussian Q(middot) function by a fixed series of sinusoids with exponentially decreasing amplitudes. Numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of the derived expression
