Performance Analysis of SSC Diversity Receivers over Correlated Ricean Fading Satellite Channels

This paper studies the performance of switch and stay combining (SSC) diversity receivers operating over correlated Ricean fading satellite channels. Using an infinite series representation for the bivariate Ricean probability density function (PDF), the PDF of the SSC output signal-to-noise ratio (...
