Bounds on the Secrecy Outage Probability for Dependent Fading Channels

Outage probability analysis for η-μ fading channels

In this Letter we derive exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability (OP) in η-μ fading channels. First, a general expression in terms of the confluent Lauricella function is derived for arbitrary values of μ. Next, we restrict the analysis to physical η-μ channel models, i.e. to integer values of 2μ, and obtain exact closed-form expressions for the OP in terms of Marcum Q, Bessel ...

Outage Probability of Diversity Combining Receivers in Arbitrarily Fading Channels

We propose a simple and accurate method to evaluate the outage probability at the output of arbitrarily fading L-branch diversity combining receiver. The method is based on the saddlepoint approximation, which only requires the knowledge of the moment generating functions of the signal-to-noise ratio at the output of each diversity branch. In addition, we show that the obtained results reduce t...

Nonasymptotic Probability Bounds for Fading Channels Exploiting Dedekind Zeta Functions

In this paper, new probability bounds are derived for algebraic lattice codes. This is done by using the Dedekind zeta functions of the algebraic number fields involved in the lattice constructions. In particular, it is shown how to upper bound the error performance of a finite constellation on a Rayleigh fading channel and the probability of an eavesdropper’s correct decision in a wiretap chan...

Outage Probability Bound and Diversity Gain for Ultra-Wideband Multiple-Access Relay Channels with Correlated Noises

In this paper, Ultra-wideband (UWB) multiple access relay channel with correlated noises at the relay and receiver is investigated. We obtain outer and inner bounds for the IEEE 802.15.3a UWB multiple access relay channel, and also, a diversity gain bound. Finally, we evaluate some results numerically and show that noise correlation coefficients play important role in determining relay position.
