The Lomax Distribution for Wireless Channel Modeling: Theory and Applications
Ivan Sánchez,
F. Javier López-Martínez
Abstract:We investigate the application of the Lomax distribution for wireless fading modeling purposes. By a proper redefinition of its scale parameter, we present closed-form expressions for its main statistics: probability density function, cumulative distribution function, raw moments and Laplacedomain statistics. Then, relevant performance indicators are derived, including the amount of fading, channel capacity, outage probability and error rate. Other applications include diversity reception using selection combi… Show more
