Abstract

The outage probability of a composite microscopic and macroscopic diversity system is evaluated over correlated shadowed fading channels. The correlations on both a microlevel and macrolevel are taken into account for the evaluations. The expression of the desired outage probability is explicitly presented, and two evaluation approaches, i.e. a compact Gaussian-Hermite quadrature method and an effective iterative algorithm, are proposed. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approaches are analysed, and a guideline is provided for their application. By employing the proposed evaluation approaches, results and demonstrations are presented, which display the implied effects of the corresponding parameters on the system outage performance, and reveal the potential to facilitate the design and analysis of such composite diversity systems.
