... Figure 4 shows the dependence of the error floor valueson the number of users in channels with correlated Ricianand Nakagami paths. The Rician channel model has the sameparameters as the channel ... correlated (even for channels with independentfading paths [2, 10]). This increases the complexity indetermining the pdf of β.Therefore, we will use (18) and the pdf of the combinedpath fading ... system, so the problem now is tofind the pdf of γ, which is the MRC output of the multiplefading paths. To be most general, we will consider the pdf of γ with arbitrarily correlated paths in...
