摘要: For maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity over correlated fading channels with Gaussian channel gains, we utilize unitary diagonalization of the covariance matrix to decorrelate physical into uncorrelated virtual obtain moment generating function (MGF) received signal-to-noise (SNR). The MGF thus obtained has a compact form and can be universally applied various popular models. In addition advantage simple derivation procedure, this general readily modified express scenarios power distributions as well joint To demonstrate these advantages, use generalized Ricean specific example compare our expression an existing work in literature. Again, present numerical simulations for MRC reception binary phase shift keying (BPSK) signals Nakagami results appearing Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
