Space diversity reception and forward error correction coding are powerful techniques for combating the multipath fading encountered in mobile radio communications. In this Letter, the authors analyse the performance of a dual maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity system using trellis coded modulation-multiple phase shift keying (TCM-MPSK) on slow, nonselective correlated Nakagami fading channels. An alternative exact derivation is introduced for the pairwise error probability, used in calculating average bit error rate analytical upper bounds.
