Performance of Digital Modulations on FlatFading Channels (Outage Probability and
Average Probability of Error)
Linear Modulations in Fading

For fading channels, SNR γs, and thus probability of
error Ps are random.

- Outage Probability Pout=p(Ps > Ptarget)=p(γs < γtarget)

Error probability much higher than in AWGN alone
Alternate Q function approach greatly simplifies
calculations
Average BER in AWGN and
Rayleigh Fading Channels
BER=10-3: SNR=8dB for AWGN
SNR=24dB for Rayleigh
Combined Outage and Average Ps
 s : random SNR for fixed path loss and shadowing, but
random fast fading.
Probability of Error = Ps(γs)
 s : random SNR for fixed path loss and random
shadowing, but averaged over fast fading, i.e.,  s  E( s )
Average Probability of Error = Ps ( s )
s
: average SNR for a fixed path loss; averaging
over fast fading and shadowing, i.e.,  s  E ( s )  E[ E ( s )]

Used in combined shadowing and flat-fading
Ps varies slowly, locally determined by flat fading
Declare outage when Ps above target value
Doppler Effects

High Doppler causes channel phase to
decorrelate between symbols

Leads to an irreducible error floor for
differential modulation schemes such as DPSK,
i.e., increasing power does not reduce error

Error floor depends on BDTs (equivalently,
Ts/Tc)

ISI Effects (Frequency-Selective Fading)

Irreducible error rate is difficult to analyze. It depends
on the specific channel model and choice of
modulation. Closed form solution is often not possible.
Simulation-based studies available.

Main Points

Fading greatly increases average Ps
- Alternate Q function approach simplifies Ps calculation, especially
its average value in fading
- Moment Generating Function approach can be used effectively for
average error probability calculations in fading



Doppler spread only impacts differential modulation,
causing an irreducible error floor at low data rates
Delay spread causes ISI and irreducible error floor or
imposes limits on transmission rates
