Title :
An approximate evaluation of the error-rate integral encountered in differentially-coherent phase-shift-keyed systems
Abstract :
Differentially-coherent phase-shift-keyed (DCPSK) communication systems are receiving more and more attention as digital techniques replace analog techniques in many areas of communication. The purpose of this letter is to point out an approximation to an integral which is frequently encountered in error-rate studies pertaining to DCPSK systems.
