In the table,γ ¯nk is the average SNR per branch. For the Ri- cian fading channels, Knk is the Rice-K factor, I0(x) is the zeroth-order modified Bessel function of the first kind, and Q1(a; b) is the first-order R 1 −(x2+a2)=2 Marcum-Q function defined as Q1(a; b) = b xe I0(ax)dx. For the Nakagami fading channel, mnk is the fading parameter, Γ(a; x) R 1 −t a−1 is the incomplete Gamma function defined as Γ(a; x) = x e t d t, and Γ(m) is the gamma function. 54 viii LIST OF FIGURES Figure 2.1 Decision boundaries and bit-symbol mapping (b1; b2) for 4-PAM.
