On the K and K G Fading Channels

Abstract

In this paper, the composite Rayleigh-Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma distributions are considered. Multipath short-term fading and long-term fading (shadowing) affect wireless channels. A composite fading model was proposed for the modeling of shadowed channels, which resulted in a closed form solution for the probability density function (pdf). These composite Rayleigh-Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma are well-known as the K-distribution and K G -distribution, and are applied to cases where both micro-and macro-diversity schemes are implemented to mitigate short-term fading and shadowing, respectively. Thus, the composite pdf model offers significant improvement over approaches, which use lognormal pdf for shadowing. The results demonstrate the simplicity and usefulness of the composite pdf in the performance analyses of shadowed fading channels.

The composite Rayleigh–Gamma distribution is known as the K-distribution and the composite Nakagami- Gamma distribution is known as the KG-distribution. The composite Rayleigh- Gamma distribution closely approximates Rayleigh–lognormal distribution and the composite Nakagami-Gamma distribution closely approximates Nakagami- lognormal distribution. The composite Rayleigh-lognormal and Nakagami-lognormal distributions are not mathematically tractable for analytical evaluations.

Aleksić, M. Stefanović, Z. Popović, D. Radenković, J.D. Ristić shadow fading can be modeled by the composite Rayleigh-Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma distributions. Using the K and KG fading models we can obtain closed form and easy use of expressions for the average BER. The main drawback of the Rayleigh-lognormal distribution is its complicated mathematical form. Multipath fading and shadow fading affect wireless channels and the composite Rayleigh- Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma are proposed for the modeling of shadowed fading channels. This model is applied to the cases where both micro- and macro-diversity are used to mitigate short-term fading and long-term fading. Channels suffer from short-term fading and long-term fading None of Rayleigh and Nakagami models leads to a closed form solution for the probability density function of the signal for noise at the output of receiver. Recently, composite Rayleigh– Gamma and a composite Nakagami-Gamma distribution are proposed to describe the shadowed fading channels. This model assumes a Nakagami or Rayleigh density function for the envelope of the received signal and the power of the envelope has gamma distribution. This composite model can be used to analyze the performance of wireless systems in shadowed fading channels. A multipath short-term fading is mitigated using micro-diversity techniques and it will not be sufficient to mitigate channel degradation when shadowing is present. Long-term fading or shadowing fading is mitigated by using macro diversity techniques. This paper is organized as follows. In the Section 2 the probability density function and the moment generating function (MGF) of Rayleigh-Gamma distribution are determined; in the Section 3 the bivariate Rayleigh-Gamma distribution is considered; in the Section 4 Nakagami-Gamma distribution is analyzed, and in the Section 5 bivariate Nakagami-Gamma distribution is calculated. In the Section 6 the conclusion is given. 2 Statistics of Rayleigh-Gamma Random Variable The conditional pdf of Rayleigh random variable is: r2 2r − Pr ( r / y ) = e y , r ≥ 0 , (1) y dr 1 where y = r 2 , if γ = r 2 , r = γ , and = .

Popović, D. Radenković, J.D. Ristić 6 Conclusion This paper considers the Rayleigh-Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma distributions. Closed form of expressions for the probability density functions for Rayleigh-Gamma and Nakagami-Gamma random variables are obtained. In addition, the cumulative distribution functions, the generating functions and moments of these random variables are determined. These functions can be used to determine the outage probability and the bit error probability in digital communication systems operating over multipath and shadow fading channels. The Rayleigh distribution and shadow-fading channel are described with Rayleigh-Gamma distribution; the Nakagami-m distribution and shadow-fading channel are described with Nakagami-Gamma distribution. The results of this paper can be used to determine the performance analysis of macro- and micro- diversity systems. The macro-diversity systems are used to mitigate the shadowing and micro-diversity systems are used to mitigate the multipath fading. 7 References [1] M.K. Simon, M.S.
