Error performance analysis of reliability-based decoding algorithms for the Rayleigh fading channel with coherent detection
In this paper, the error performances of several reliability based decoding algorithms over the Rayleigh fading channel with coherent detection are evaluated. The algorithms for which the theoretical bounds are evaluated are the Generalized Minimum Distance(GMD), Chase-type, combined GMD and Chase-type and ordered statistic decodings. All derived bounds are relatively tight and require the same computational effort.
