Performance of maximal-ratio diversity systems in a correlated Nakagami-fading environment
TL;DR: The bit error rate (BER) performance of an M-branch maximal-ratio combiner (MRC) for the detection of signals in a correlated Nakagami-fading channel is analyzed and outage probabilities are calculated for the digital radio communication systems via the correlated fading channel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance analysis of maximal ratio combining in the presence of multiple equal-power cochannel interferers in a Nakagami fading channel
Valentine A. Aalo,Jingjun Zhang +1 more
TL;DR: The effect of cochannel interference on the performance of digital mobile radio systems in a Nakagami (1960) fading channel and maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity is analyzed in the presence of multiple equal-power cochannel interferers and additive white Gaussian noise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bit-error rate of binary digital modulation schemes in generalized gamma fading channels
TL;DR: A closed-form expression for the bit-error rate of binary digital modulation schemes in a generalized fading channel that is modeled by the three-parameter generalized gamma distribution, which is very versatile and generalizes or accurately approximates many of the commonly used channel models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance analysis of coherent DS-CDMA systems in a Nakagami fading channel with arbitrary parameters
TL;DR: A new expression for the bit error rate (BER) of an asynchronous direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) system with coherent BPSK demodulation in a multipath Nakagami (1960) fading channel is derived and shows that in such systems, the effect of nonidentical fading on system performance cannot be ignored.
Journal ArticleDOI
On distributed detection with correlated sensors: two examples
Valentine A. Aalo,R. Viswanathou +1 more
TL;DR: The authors study the effect of correlated noise on the performance of a distributed detection system and consider a suboptimal scheme by assuming that the local sensors have the same operating point, and that the distribution of the sensor observation is symmetric.
