Abstract :
In this paper, a new closed-form formula for the multivariate Nakagami-m joint probability density function (PDF) generated from correlated Gaussian random variables is derived allowing for an arbitrary correlation matrix and different fading parameters. The formulation is general and exact and contains all of the other joint Nakagami-m PDFs published in the literature.
