| Abstract | A general result is derived for the bit error rate (BER) of differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) for reception in slow fading and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). Fading models include Rayleigh, Rician, Nakagami and shadowed Rician, which describe a wide range of fading conditions encountered in mobile communications. Easily computable, the result is potentially useful in evaluating the BER of such systems |
