Abstract :
Exact, closed-form and general expressions of the marginal and joint moments as well as-of the correlation coefficient of the instantaneous powers of two Hoyt (Nakagami-q) signals are derived. All provided statistics are expressed as finite sums of simple functions of the model parameters. The model allows for environments where the variances of the quadrature components of a signal are different from their counterparts of the other signal. Some numerical results illustrate the generalized power correlation coefficient provided in this work, simulations support the theoretical results, and an approximation to the envelope correlation coefficient of the Hoyt Model is proposed
