“…V SIMULATIONS AND DISCUSSION OF THE RESULTS As mentioned previously, MRC SEP (for non-coherent detection) performances will be examined via Monte Carlo simulations and theoretical expression (14). Because there are many parameters that appear in derived expressions, and because of the page limit, we will have to limit this discussion to the most interesting cases.…”

“…Ω ranges from 0 dB to 15 dB. Figures 1-6 clearly show that theoretical expressions used are correct, because theoretical results concur with simulations results extremely well.Figures 1 and 2show SEP for L=1, L=2, and L=3 for NC-BFSK and NCDBPSK, respectively.Figures 3-6show average SEP L=2 (dual-branch combining), as an most interesting case of combining (as stated in[14] and[15]) for various values of parameters η and μ , and for different modulation formats. By examining figures 1 and 2 for 1% of average SEP, we can see that we gained approximately 6dB for L=2, and 8dB for L=3, compared to the case with no combining (L=1).…”

Maximal-Ratio Combiner (MRC) performances in fading channels have been of interest for a long time, which can be seen by a number of papers concerning this topic. Most of these papers treat Rayleigh, Nakagami-m, Hoyt, Rice or Weibull fading. This paper treats symbol error probability (SEP) performances of MRC in presence of generalized η μ − fading. In this paper, we will present η μ − fading model, and expressions for SEP of the L-branch MRC output. SEP will be treated for a broad class of modulation types and for non-coherent type of detection. SEP performances of the MRC will be presented via Monte Carlo simulations and theoretical expressions. Key words -generalized η μ − fading, maximal-ratio combining, Monte Carlo simulations, non-coherent detection, symbol error probability.
