Abstract :
Multi-dimensional minimisation techniques are used to optimise for specific applications, the upper bound bit error rate (BER) and bits per symbol (BPS) performances of adaptive modulation schemes over Rayleigh channels. This is achieved by modifying the switching criteria for selecting the appropriate modulation scheme
