Abstract :
Application of the union bound to MFSK signaling on certain channels where probability of bit error varies in an inverse linear fashion with 
can lead to the erroneous conclusion that performance degrades with increasing alphabet size. The anomaly is shown for the worst-case partial band Gaussian interference channel and the Rayleigh fading channel.
