Performance Analysis of Matched and Partially Matched One-Shot Detectors for Doubly-Selective Rayleigh Fading Channels

In this paper optimum one-shot detection over known and partially known doubly-selective Rayleigh fading channels is investigated. Reduced complexity channel models based on Gauss Quadrature Rules (GQRs) and Taylor power series are derived and are employed to develop novel analytical tools for the performance analysis of one-shot detectors. Numerical results allow to assess the implicit diversity gain provided by both channel multipath and signal fading and the energy loss due to the mismatch of the receiver filter.
