Asymptotically tight performance bounds for equal-gain combining over a new correlated fading channel Olutayo, Adebola; Cheng, Julian; Holzman, Jonathan F.

Abstract

A recently proposed fading model which can be used to describe both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight components of a fading channel is analyzed. The outage probability and error rate performance of equal-gain combining over arbitrary correlated Beaulieu-Xie fading channels is considered. Asymptoticallytight closed-form lower and upper bounds are derived and these analytical results are verified via Monte Carlo simulations.
