An Accurate Sample Rejection Estimator of the Outage Probability With Equal Gain Combining

We evaluate the outage probability (OP) for L-branch equal gain combining (EGC) receivers operating over fading channels, i.e., equivalently the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the sum of the L channel envelopes. In general, closed form expressions of OP values are out of reach. The use of...
