چکیده

New bounds are proposed for the Marcum -function, which is defined by an integral expression where the 0th-order modified Bessel function appears. The proposed bounds are derived by suitable approximations of the 0th-order modified Bessel function in the integration region of the Marcum -function. They prove to be very tight and outperform bounds previously proposed in the literature. In particular, the proposed bounds are noticeably good for large values of the parameters of the Marcum -function, where previously introduced bounds fail and where exact computation of the function becomes critical due to numerical problems.

Tighter and Stable Bounds for Marcum Q-Function

This paper proposes new bounds for Marcum Q-function, which prove extremely tight and outperform all the bounds previously proposed in the literature. What is more, the proposed bounds are good and stable both for large values and small values of the parameters of the Marcum Q-function, where the previously introduced bounds are bad and even useless under some conditions. The new bounds are der...

Tight bounds for the first order Marcum Q-function

In this paper, we develop new bounds for the first order Marcum Q-function, which are extremely tight and tighter than any of the existing bounds to the best of our knowledge. The key idea of our approach is to derive refined approximations for the 0 order modified Bessel function in the integration region of the Marcum Q-function. The new bounds are very tight and can serve as an effective mea...

On the monotonicity, log-concavity and tight bounds of the generalized Marcum and Nuttall Q-functions

In this paper, we present a comprehensive study of the monotonicity and log-concavity of the generalized Marcum and Nuttall Q−functions. More precisely, a simple probabilistic method is firstly given to prove the monotonicity of these two functions. Then, the log-concavity of the generalized Marcum Q−function and its deformations is established with respect to each of the three parameters. Sinc...

New bounds for the generalized Marcum Q-function

In this paper, we study the generalized Marcum -function where and . Our aim is to extend the results of Corazza and Ferrari (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, vol. 48, pp. 3003–3008, 2002) to the generalized Marcum -function in order to deduce some new tight lower and upper bounds. The key tools in our proofs are some monotonicity properties of certain functions involving the modified Bessel function o...

Stochastic Representations of the Marcum Q-S Function and Associated Radar Detection

This report introduces new research on the generalised Marcum Q-Function, and in particular, the probability of detection of a number of incoherently integrated signals in a Gaussian clutter and noise environment. A new probabilistic association is derived, linking this detection probability with a probability associated with two independent Poisson random variables. Additionally, it is shown t...
