  • Abstract
    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.
