Calculation of Entropy for a Sinusoid with Beta-Distributed Phase

Calculation of Entropy for a Sinusoid with Beta-Distributed Phase

In this paper, an analytical expression is developed for the differential entropy of a sinusoid with a Beta-distributed phase angle. This particular signal model is prevalent in optical communications, however an expression for the associated differential entropy does not currently exist. The expres...
