We show that an $L$ -branch maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver with an average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) $bar{gamma}$ in Nakagami- $m$ fading channels is equivalent to an $mL$ -branch MRC receiver with average SNR $bar{gamma}/m$ in Rayleigh fading channels in terms of symbol error probability (SEP) when $mL$ is an integer. Moreover, the orthogonal space–time block code (OSTBC) employing $M_mathrm{t}$ transmit antennas and $M_mathrm{r}$ receive antennas with the average SNR $bar{gamma}$ in Nakagami- $m$ fading channels is shown to be equivalent to an $mM_mathrm{t}M_mathrm{r}$ -branch MRC single-input–multiple-output (SIMO) receiver with the average SNR $bar{gamma}/mM_mathrm{t}$ in Rayleigh fading channels. |
