Abstract

Modern wireless communication systems adapt the employed Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) to the instantaneous channel quality in order to maximise the amount of bits correctly transmitted per time unit (i.e., the throughput). An important aspect in the study of this technique, referred to as Adaptive Modulation and Coding (AMC), is the characterisation of the link throughput performance under realistic fading channels. In this context, this work derives analytically tractable closed-form expressions for the link throughput performance of AMC under Rayleigh, Nakagami-m, Nakagami-q (Hoyt), Nakagami-n (Rice), η-μ and κ-μ fading channels. The correctness and accuracy of the obtained expressions is corroborated numerically and with results from an LTE link level AMC simulator.
