In this paper, we investigate the performance of the system transmitting over correlated Ī·ā??Āµ frequency selective fading channels in terms of average error rates. Based on moment generating function approach, closed form expressions for average error probabilities for the system are derived and represented in terms of Appellā??s hypergeometric functions and Lauricellaā??s multivariate hypergeometric functions. In addition, probability density function based approach is employed to determine the formulae for average error probabilities of the system operating over correlated Ī·ā??Āµ multipath fading channels. The numerical results reveal that, the effects of correlation, decaying power factor and signal constellation size can be reduced using frequency, spatial antennas and path diversities, respectively. Furthermore, we confirm the correctness of the analytical approaches through Monte Carlo simulation technique. Ā© 2016, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
