Abstract

The present paper analyzes an L-branch maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver over the Beaulieu-Xie (BX) fading channel. The expression of the probability density function (PDF) of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of an MRC receiver in BX fading is derived by using the characteristic function approach. The obtained PDF is then utilized to calculate the various link-level and system-level parameters. This paper focuses on deriving closed-form expressions for different adaptive transmission techniques based on instantaneous channel state information in BX fading. The accuracy of our derived expressions is verified by comparing them with Monte Carlo simulations.
