  • Abstract
    A closed-form upper bound is presented for the average pairwise error probabilities (PEP) of space-time codes for a keyhole channel. It is derived from the exact conditional PEP for given fading channel coefficients using a moment generating function-based approach. Simulation results are included for varying numbers of antennas that affirm that the proposed PEP serves as a tight bound for codes in a keyhole channel
