Summary:
This paper presents upper bounds on the average bit error rate (BER) of coherent detection of PSK and differential detection of DPSK with adaptive arrays in fading environments. A model where a line of sight (LOS) component and Rayleigh distributed scattering components arrive at a receiver with specific arrival angles is used considering the correlation of signal between multiple antennas. The upper bounds are expressed in a simple matrix form using signal and interference-plus-noise correlation matrices. Examples for the case of 4-element adaptive arrays are given to illustrate the tightness and the application of this upper bounds.
