Outage probability with maximal ratio combining in the presence of multiple interferers under Rayleigh and Nakagami fading channels

Juan P. Peña-Martín, Juan Manuel Romero Jerez

Abstract

Close form analytical expressions are derived for the outage probability of predetection maximal ratio combiner (MRC) diversity reception with M branches in both Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading channels. This formulation is obtained in the presence of the white Gaussian noise and Q interferers, without restrictions about the power, number or distribution parameters of interferers. Closed-form expressions are derived and results are easily computable.
