Abstract

This paper considers the error performance of an uncoded multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless system with antenna selection at the transmitter and maximal ratio combining (MRC) at the receiver end. Exact closed-form expressions are derived for symbol error probability of the aforementioned scheme in independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) Nakagami-m fading channels.
