摘要
A detailed performance analysis of generalized-selection combining GSC(2, L) receivers operating over generalized-Gamma fading channels is presented. For this class of receivers, a novel closed-form expression for the moments output signal-to-noise ratio is derived. Furthermore, infinite series representations for the moments-generating and the cumulative distribution functions are obtained. The proposed mathematical analysis is accompanied by various performance evaluation results. These theoretical results are complemented by equivalent computer simulated results, which validate the accuracy of the proposed analysis.
