Abstract

In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of OFDM communication system over correlated Nakagami-m fading channel using maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity at the receiver. We have presented new closed form formulas for exact symbol error rate (SER) analysis of the MQAM OFDM communication systems over correlated Nakagami-m fading with arbitrary fading index m. Using a well known moment generating function (MGF) based anal- ysis, we express the average SER in terms of higher transcendental function such as Appell hypergeometric function.
