摘　　要：In this paper,the Symbol Error Rate(SER)performance for Orthogonal Space-Time Block Coded(OSTBC)Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM)systems over Nakagami-m fading channels is analysed.A novel closed-form SER expression is proposed,which incorporates the Gauss hypergeometric function and Appell hypergeometric function into the conventional Probability Density Function(PDF)approach.The proposed exact closed-form SER expression is a generalised solution since it perfectly captures OSTBCOFDM systems’performances when having different antenna configurations that employ various modulation schemes and which experience various fading conditions.Finally,Monte Carlo simulation results are provided to demonstrate the exact match between the simulation results and the proposed analytical expressions.In this paper, the Symbol Error Rate （SER） performance for Orthogonal Space- Ti- me Block Coded （OSTBC） Orthogonal Freq- uency Division Multiplexing （OFDM） systems over Nakagami-m fading channels is analysed. A novel closed-form SER expression is propo- sed, which incorporates the Gauss hypergeome- tric function and Appell hypergeometric fun- ction into the conventional Probability Density Function （PDF） approach. The proposed exact closed-form SER expression is a generalised solution since it perfectly captures OSTBC- OFDM systems＇ performances when having dif- ferent antenna configurations that employ var- ious modulation schemes and which experie- nce various fading conditions. Finally, Monte Carlo simulation results are provided to demo- nstrate the exact match between the simulation results and the proposed analytical expressions.
