The exact average bit error ratio (BER) of the rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) constellation is studied in the context of asynchronous co-channel interference (CCI) and Nakagami-m fading. A new formula is derived for the characteristic function of the CCI, which requires no knowledge of the CCI distribution.Introduction: Conventionally, the rectangular QAM (R-QAM) BER has been estimated by using various approximations or bounds. Most exact QAM BER results are obtained without taking into account the co-channel interference (CCI) [1,2]. When CCI is considered, exact BER analyses procedures are performed only for BPSK [3][4][5] and QPSK [4,5] systems. Hence, the contribution of this Letter is that we derive an exact BER expression for R-QAM systems corrupted by both asynchronous CCI and Nakagami-m fading, while dispensing with the Gaussian distributed CCI assumption.
The family of operational CDMA systems is inter-More explicitly, the achievable system capacity might be ference-limited owing to the Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) and dramatically improved even with the aid of a limited-duration the Multiple Access Interference (MAI) encountered. They are IFW, where the off-peak aperiodic auto-correlations c,, and interference-limited, because the orthogonality of the spreading codes is typically destroyed by the frequency-selective fading cross-correlations cas become zero [3].
