Abstract
Several numerical methods have been suggested in the past to compute the outage probability and the ergodic capacity of an orthogonal space-time block coding system. In this paper we add to this body of work by describing a simpler yet general method that relies on a more efficient Fixed-Talbot algorithm for numerical Laplace inversion. The framework developed can be applied to a wide range of fading distributions (including Rice, Nakagami-m, Nakagami-Hoyt and Weibull stochastic channel models) with unequal channel gains and also to independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.d) multiple input multiple output channels.
