Abstract

The performance of Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) in a Joint fading and Two-path Shadowing (JFTS)environment is analyzed. Closed form expression for the exact Average Bit Error Rate (ABER) of coherent BPSK scheme is presented using the Moment Generating Function (MGF) of the JFTS distribution. Finally the coherent BPSK ABER of a wireless communication system is simulated over JFTS fading / shadowing channels with and without non- iterative Forward Error Correction (FEC) coding and compared with the analytical ABER expression.
