Abstract
In this work, we derive the asymptotic expressions of the average symbol error probability (SEP) of a wireless system over the Weibull-lognormal fading channel. First, we evaluate an approximation of the multipath distribution at the origin then the composite distribution is obtained by averaging the approximate multipath probability density function (PDF) with respect to shadowing. The result is further extended to include maximal ratio combining (MRC), equal gain combining (EGC), and selection combining (SC) PDF at the origin. The derived expressions of the composite PDF are further utilized to evaluate the average SEP for both coherent and non-coherent modulation schemes. The derived expressions have been corroborated with Monte-Carlo simulations.
