Abstract :
Novel single integral representations for the multivariate probability density function and cumulative distribution function of Rayleigh and Rician distributions are derived. A generalized correlation structure is used in this analysis. The derived novel representations are used to evaluate the outage probability of N-branch selection diversity operating in correlated Rayleigh and Rician fading channels modeled by the generalized correlation model.
