First-Order Statistical Characteristics of Macrodiversity System with Three Microdiversity MRC Receivers in the Presence of k-µ Short-Term Fading and Gamma Long-Term Fading by Branimir Jaksic, Mihajlo Stefanovic, Danijela Aleksic, Dragan Radenkovic, Sinisa Minic

“…Macrodiversity system with macrodiversity SC receiver and three microdiversity MRC (maximum ratio combining) receivers is considered. Independent k-μ short-term fading and correlated Gamma long-term fading are present at the inputs of microdiversity MRC receivers. …”

Energy Detection in Multihop Cooperative Diversity Networks: An Analytical Study by M. O. Mughal, L. Marcenaro, C. S. Regazzoni

“…In particular, upper bound average detection probability expressions are obtained for three scenarios: (i) multihop cooperative relay communication; (ii) multi-hop cooperative relay communication with direct link and maximum ratio combiner (MRC) at destination; and (iii) multi-hop cooperative relay communication with direct link and selection combiner (SC) at destination. …”
