Despite the usefulness of the bivariate (correlated) Nakagami-m cumulative distribution function (cdf) in communications systems analysis, an infinite series for the computation of this function is not known. In this letter, an infinite series representation of the bivariate cdf is derived. Bounds on the error resulting from truncation of the infinite series are also derived.
