%A Xuan Thang Vu %A Dinh Thong Nguyen %A Anh Vu Trinh %T An finite-state Markov channel model for ACM scheme in WiMAX %X The paper derives a more accurate upper bound for BER for M-QAM than is currently used in the literature. This allows a more thorough analysis of the power adaptation to fading conditions for optimization of spectral efficiency. By taking into account the effect of error coding gain on power adaptation, a 7-state FSMC model for the implementation of the adaptive modulation and coding scheme in WiMAX is proposed. %D 2009 %P 1-6 %L SisLab407
