Abstract

Based on an alternative expression for Q-function, a simple bit error rate expression is derived in this paper for multicarrier code division multiple access systems with maximal ratio combining in correlated Nakagami-q channels. Furthermore, in this paper, we derive bounds on the probability of error and ergodic capacity of spatially multiplexed MC-CDM systems with zero forcing unified successive interference cancellation technique. Closed-form expressions for Capacities per unit bandwidth and Outage probability using optimal power and rate adaptation policy are derived and plotted. Asymptotic approximations and upper bounds on spectrum efficiency are also derived and plotted. Numerical results for Symbol Error Rate are also derived and plotted using MATLAB.
