Yc. Chow et al., ERROR ANALYSIS FOR CIRCULAR 16-DAPSK IN FREQUENCY-SELECTIVE RAYLEIGH FADING CHANNELS WITH DIVERSITY RECEPTION, Electronics Letters, 30(24), 1994, pp. 2006-2007
The average error probability of circular 16-ary differential amplitud
e and phase shift keying (circular 16-DAPSK) is theoretically analysed
for frequency-selective Rayleigh fading diversity channels. The avera
ge irreducible bit error probability for circular 16-DAPSK with time d
elay spread is shown to be superior to that of 16-DPSK but slightly wo
rse than Q-DPSK.
