چکیده

There are various cases in physics and engineering sciences (specially communications) where one requires the envelope PDF of the sum of several random sinusoidal signals. According to the correspondence between a random sinusoidal signal and a random vector, sum of random vectors can be considered as an abstract mathematical model for the above sum. Now it is desired to obtain the PDF of the length of the resulting vector. Considering the common and reasonable assumption of uniform distributions for the angles of vectors, many researchers have obtained the PDF of the length of the resulting vector only for special cases. However in this paper, the PDF is obtained for the most general case in which the lengths of vectors are arbitrary dependent random variables. This PDF is in the form of a definite integral, which may be inappropriate for analytic manipulations and numerical computations. So an appropriate infinite Laguerre expansion is also derived. Finally, the results are applied to solve a typical example in computing the scattering cross section of random scatterers.

پروتکل کارا برای جمع چندسویه امن با قابلیت تکرار

In secure multiparty computation (SMC), a group of users jointly and securely computes a mathematical function on their private inputs, such that the privacy of their private inputs will be preserved. One of the widely used applications of SMC is the secure multiparty summation which securely computes the summation value of the users’ private inputs. In this paper, we consider a secure multipar...

A Recursive Approximation Approach of non-iid Lognormal Random Variables Summation in Cellular Systems

Co-channel interference is a major factor in limiting the capacity and link quality in cellular communications. As the co-channel interference is modeled by lognormal distribution, sum of the co-channel interferences of neighboring cells is represented by the sum of lognormal Random Variables (RVs) which has no closed-form expression. Assuming independent, identically distributed (iid) RVs, the...

IDENTIFICATION OF LEISHMANIA SPECIES FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF IRAN USING A RANDOM AMPLIFIED POLYMORPHIC DNA IN HUMANS, ANIMAL RESERVOIRS AND VECTORS

In this study, we used Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) for identification of 17 isolates of Leishmania from the skin and reticuloendothelial system of humans, animal reservoirs (rodent and dog) and sandflies in various parts of Iran in the last decade. Fifteen species have been confirmed by isoenzyme characterization by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and Shiraz ...

Contributions to the Theory of the Non-Central χ Distribution

In this paper, we consider the probability density function (pdf) of a non-central χ distribution with odd number of degrees of freedom ν. This pdf is represented in the literature as an infinite sum. Consequently, we present three alternative expressions to this pdf. The first expression is in terms of a partial derivative of the hyperbolic cosine function. The second expression, on the other ...
