Moreno-Pozas, Laureano,Martos-Naya, Eduardo

Abstract

This paper shows that the proposed Rician shadowed model for multi-antenna communications allows for the unification of a wide set of models, both for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and single- input single-output (SISO) communications. The MIMO Rayleigh and MIMO Rician can be deduced from the MIMO Rician shadowed, and so their SISO counterparts. Other more general SISO models, besides the Rician shadowed, are included in the model, such as the κ-μ, and its recent generalization, the κ-μ shadowed model. Moreover, the SISO η-μ and Nakagami-q models are also included in the MIMO Rician shadowed model. The literature already presents the probability density function (pdf) of the Rician shadowed Gram channel matrix in terms of the well-known gamma- Wishart distribution. We here derive its moment generating function in a tractable form. Closed- form expressions for the cumulative distribution function and the pdf of the maximum eigenvalue are also carried out.

The MIMO Rayleigh and MIMO Rician can be deduced from the MIMO Rician shadowed, and so their SISO counterparts. Other more general SISO models, besides the Rician shadowed, are included in the model, such as the 𝜅-𝜇, and its recent generalization, the 𝜅-𝜇shadowed model. Moreover, the SISO 𝜂-𝜇and Nakagami-𝑞models are also included in the MIMO Rician shadowed model. The literature already presents the probability density function (pdf) of the Rician shadowed Gram channel matrix in terms of the well-known gamma-Wishart distribution. We here derive its moment generating function in a tractable form. Closed-form expressions for the cumulative distribution function and the pdf of the maximum eigenvalue are also carried out. I. INTRODUCTION The Rician fading model [1] was proposed in order to characterize scenarios where there is a dominant signal, oftentimes called line-of sight (LOS) signal, whose power is much stronger than the power of the rest of the signals received due to reflections, widely referred to as scattering waves. With the aim of also including the large-scale propagation effects, a Rician shadowed model was then presented by Loo, where the LOS signal suffers from a perturbation in the amplitude which follows a log-normal distribution [2]. Although the model presented by Loo is validated with channel measurements, the statistical characterization of such model is not simple since the probability density function (pdf) is given in an integral form. Instead, a new Rician shadowed model was proposed in [3], where the shadowing amplitude follows a Nakagami-𝑚distribution. In fact, this new fading model can be easily characterized without compromising the accuracy when fitting real channel measurements [3]. Recently, the Rician shadowed proposed in [3] was generalized under the name of 𝜅-𝜇shadowed fading model [4] or shadowed 𝜅-𝜇[5], and exhibits excellent agreement when compared to measured underwater acoustic [4, 6] and body centric communications fading channels [5, 7]. In the literature, the statistical characterization of the aforementioned channel models is usually tackled on a single-link fashion, i.e., for a single-input single-output (SISO) communication system. However, since modern communication systems like Wi-Fi standards or 4G always use several antennas at both the transmitter and receiver sides, i.e. multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) systems, the statistical characterization of MIMO systems is of extreme interest. The study of the impact of MIMO diversity in the capacity of flat-fading Rayleigh channels was studied for a long while [8–10] and was finally analytically evaluated for spatially correlated Rayleigh channels in [11]. The MIMO Rician was also deeply studied in the literature [12–14], showing that its performance analysis is much more complicated than the MIMO Rayleigh case. Moreover, when trying to extend other types of models in order to be employed in MIMO communications, we tackle some analytic problems. For instance, the MIMO Nakagami-𝑞model is still an open problem in the literature, being only partially characterized in [15, 16], leading to comlicated and not very tractable expressions. In fact, random matrix models for fading channels other than Rayleigh or Rician are scarce in the literature [15–18]. In this paper, we revisit the random matrix model for a Rician fading model with Gamma-variate average matrix presented in [17], which we here directly call MIMO Rician shadowed for the first time. We show that the versatility of the model has not been exploited yet to the full extent possible, since this model allows for a wide unification: i) for MIMO communications, it unifies the MIMO Rayleigh and MIMO Rician models, and ii) for SISO communications, it unifies the one-sided Gaussian, Rayleigh, Nakagami-𝑚, Nakagami-𝑞and Rician, together with their general counterparts, i.e, the 𝜅-𝜇 and 𝜂-𝜇[19], the Rician shadowed [3] and the 𝜅-𝜇shadowed [4, 5]. Moreover, like its univariate counterpart, this model can be also used when its parameters take non-integer values. Although the pdf of the Gram channel matrix can be found in [17], we here present for the first time the moment generating function (mgf) of such model in closedform. Moreover, we derive the cumulative density function (cdf) and pdf of the maximum eigenvalue distribution for a shadowing power matrix with equal eigenvalues, which are the respective distributions of the outage probability and the maximum output SNR pdf of a maximum ratio combining system [20, 21]. This paper is structured as follows. In Section II, we introduce some preliminary results needed in our following derivations. In Section III, the MIMO Rician shadowed model is again introduced and we derive the mgf of the Gram channel matrix. In Section IV, we prove the wide unification that model allows. In Section V, the cdf and pdf of the maximum 978-1-5090-1698-3/16/$31.00 ©2016 IEEE eigenvalue distribution of the random matrix model are derived for shadowing with equal eigenvalues. In Section VI, we present some numerical results. Finally, conclusions are drawn in Section VII. Throughout this paper, matrices are denoted in bold uppercase. The matrix I𝑝symbolizes the 𝑝×𝑝identity matrix, while 0𝑝is the 𝑝×𝑝null matrix. When the operator ∣⋅∣ is used around a matrix, it indicates the determinant of that square matrix; otherwise, it is the complex modulus. The matrix ¯ Ais the expectation matrix of A. The conditional matrix A∣Bmeans the matrix Agiven matrix B. The operator tr(⋅)represents the matrix trace while etr(⋅)is the exponential of the matrix trace. The super-index ℋmeans the conjugate transpose and the symbol ∼expresses statistically distributed as.IfHis a 𝑝×𝑛matrix, we refer to HℋHas its Gram matrix. Finally, 𝒱(⋅)is the Vandermonde determinant and A>0indicates that matrix Ais positive definite. II. PRELIMINARIES Definition 1: Noncentral Complex Wishart Matrix. The 𝑛×𝑛matrix Wis a noncentral complex Wishart matrix with 𝑝degrees of freedom (𝑝≥𝑛), covariance matrix Σand noncentrality matrix Θ, i.e., W∼𝒲 𝑛(𝑝, Σ,Θ), if its pdf is given by [22, eq. (99)] 𝑓W(W)= etr(−Σ−1W)∣W∣𝑝−𝑛 ˜ Γ𝑛(𝑝)∣Σ∣𝑝 ×etr(−Θ)0˜ 𝐹1(𝑝;ΘΣ−1W), (1) where ˜ Γ𝑛(𝑝)is the complex multivariate gamma function [22, eq. (83)], and 0˜ 𝐹1(⋅;⋅)is the complex Bessel hypergeometric function of matrix argument [22]. Notice that the first line expression of (1) corresponds to the pdf of a central complex Wishart matrix [22, eq. (94)]. Definition 2: Complex Gamma-variate Matrix. The 𝑛×𝑛Hermitian positive-definite matrix Bis a complex gamma-variate matrix, with scalar parameter 𝛽(𝛽≥𝑛) and matrix parameter Ω,ifBfollows the complex gamma distribution Γ𝑛(𝛽,Ω)[23, p. 254, p. 356], i.e, 𝑓B(B)=∣B∣𝛽−𝑛∣Ω∣𝛽 ˜ Γ𝑛(𝛽)etr(−ΩB).(2) Notice that the complex gamma distribution Γ𝑛(𝛽,Ω)can be seen as the continuous extension of the central Wishart distribution when its scalar parameter takes real positive values. Definition 3: Complex Gamma-Wishart Matrix. Assume to have a 𝑞×𝑛(𝑞≥𝑛)matrix, H, defined as H=ˆ H+¯ H,(3) where ˆ H∼𝒞𝒩(0,I𝑞⊗Σ)and ¯ Hℋ¯ H∼Γ𝑛(𝛼, Ω)are statistically independent. Then the Gram matrix A=HℋHfollows the gamma-Wishart distribution Γ𝒲𝑛(𝛼, 𝑞, Σ,Ω)given by [17, 18] 𝑓A(A)= etr(−Σ−1A)∣A∣𝑞−𝑛∣Ω∣𝛼 ˜ Γ𝑛(𝑞)∣Σ∣𝑞∣Σ−1+Ω∣𝛼 ×1˜ 𝐹1(𝛼;𝑞;Σ−1(Σ−1+Ω)−1Σ−1A), (4) where 1˜ 𝐹1(⋅;⋅;⋅)is the complex confluent hypergeometric function of matrix argument [22]. III. SYSTEM MODEL DEFINITION The MIMO Rician shadowed fading model for multiantenna communications was presented in [17] with the following channel matrix model H=ˆ H+Ξ,(5) where ˆ H∼𝒞𝒩(0,I𝑝⊗Σ), and ΞℋΞ∼Γ𝑛(𝑚, M);matrix ˆ Hrepresents the scattered components, Ξis the LOS which suffers from shadowing and Mtakes into account the spatial correlation of the shadowing at the receiver side, since we consider that the number of receiver antennas is lower than the number of transmit antennas 𝑝. Notice that this does not imply any loss of generality, since every Gram matrix will have 𝑛×𝑛elements, with 𝑛=min(𝑝, 𝑛), but we take this assumption for the sake of notational simplicity. The pdf of the Gram channel matrix, Y=HℋH, can be given in terms of the well known gamma-Wishart distribution, such as Y∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M)[17, Proposition 1]. Next, the mgf of the MIMO Rician shadowed model is derived. Lemma 1:LetY∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M); then, its mgf is given by ℳY(S)≜E[etr(YS)] =∣−S+Σ−1∣−𝑝∣M∣𝑚 ∣Σ∣𝑝∣Σ−1+M∣𝑚 ×∣I𝑛−Σ−1(Σ−1+M)−1Σ−1(−S+Σ−1)−1∣−𝑚. (6) Proof : The mgf is calculated from the next integration over the space of Hermitian positive definite matrices ℳY(S)=∫Yℋ=Y>0 etr(YS)⋅fY(Y)(dY)(7) where fY(Y)is the pdf of the matrix Y, which depends on the hypergeometric 1˜ 𝐹1(⋅;⋅;⋅). Eq. (7) is carried out with the help of [23, eq. (6.1.20)], when expressing the hypergeometric function in series form [22, eq. (87)]. Thus, a Binomial hypergeometric function 1˜ 𝐹0(⋅;⋅)is obtained and expressed in turn as a determinant [22, eq. (90)]. This result is new in the literature to the best of our knowledge. IV. UNIFICATION OF POPULAR FADING MODELS THROUGH THE MIMO RICIAN SHADOWED In this section, we first show that the MIMO Rician shadowed model unifies a wide set of SISO models, and then we also show what MIMO models are included therein. The MIMO Rician shadowed model parameters are underlined for the sake of clarity. A. Unifying models for SISO communication In the following lemma, we prove that the 𝜅-𝜇shadowed, originally proposed by [4], can be seen as a particular case of the MIMO Rician shadowed case. Lemma 2:LetY∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M).If𝑛=1, then Σ→𝜎2 Σ,M→𝜎2 𝑀and Y→𝑦.Let𝛾=¯𝛾𝑦 ¯𝑦, with ¯𝛾=𝔼[𝛾] and ¯𝑦=𝔼[𝑦], then 𝛾follows a 𝜅-𝜇shadowed distribution with 𝜅=𝑚𝜎−2 𝑀/(𝜇𝜎2 Σ)and 𝜇=𝑝. TABLE I MIMO CHANNELS DERIVED FROM MIMO RICIAN SHADOWED MODEL MIMO Channels (Distributions) MIMO Rician Shadowed Parameters MIMO Rayleigh M ¯ −1→0𝑛 (Central Wishart) 𝑚 ¯ =𝑝 ¯ MIMO Rician (Noncentral Wishart) 𝑚 ¯ →∞ Proof :If𝑛=1, we can identify 𝜎𝑀2=𝑚𝜅−1¯𝛾−1(1 + 𝜅), 𝜎Σ−2=𝜇¯𝛾−1(1 + 𝜅),𝑝=𝜇and 𝑚=𝑚in the GammaWishart distribution and so we obtain the 𝜅-𝜇shadowed distribution originally presented in [4, eq. (4)]. Notice also that eq. (6) becomes [4, eq. (5)]. Very recently, the 𝜅-𝜇shadowed has been presented as the model which unifies the 𝜅-𝜇and 𝜂-𝜇distributions for SISO communications [24]. Therefore, the MIMO Rician shadowed includes the SISO 𝜅-𝜇shadowed, 𝜅-𝜇,𝜂-𝜇, Nakagami-𝑚, Nakagami-𝑞, Rician, Rayleigh and one-sided Gaussian. B. Unifying models for MIMO communication The MIMO Rayleigh and MIMO Rician can be deduced from the MIMO Rician shadowed fading model when its parameters are set to specific values and/or taken to limit. Table I summarizes these MIMO fading derivations. Notice that considering a MIMO 𝜅-𝜇or a MIMO 𝜅-𝜇shadowed does not give a different distribution when compared to the MIMO Rician or MIMO Rician shadowed, respectively, since the sum of noncentral Wishart gives another noncentral Wishart with more degree of freedom. While a unification similar to the SISO case under the umbrella of the MIMO Rician shadowed model might be inferred for the Nakagami-𝑞 model, such connection is unfortunately not possible in MIMO communications. Due to space constraints, we only outline the proofs which are required to obtain the results in Table I. On the one hand, the derivation for the MIMO Rayleigh fading model is carried out thanks to the next properties of the hypergeometric functions. When the case M−1→0𝑛is considered, we apply lim 𝑐→0𝑝˜ 𝐹𝑞(𝑎1...𝑎 𝑝;𝑏1...𝑏 𝑞;𝑐X)=1.(8) When 𝑚=𝑝,weuse 1˜ 𝐹1(𝑎;𝑎;X)=etr(X)1˜ 𝐹1(𝑎−𝑎;𝑎;−X)=etr(X).(9) In fact, the eq. (8) can be handled by simply exploiting the series expression of the hypergeometric function of matrix argument [22, eq. (87)], where the first term has the unit value and the rest of the terms depend on the eigenvalues of the matrix argument, which become zero when M→0𝑛.The eq. (9), which is usually referred to as the Kummer relation for scalar confluent hypergeometric functions, is derived by using the integral representation of the hypergeometric function [23, eq. (6.2.4)]. On the other hand, the MIMO Rician case is derived by using the following limits lim 𝑎→∞ 1˜ 𝐹1(𝑎;𝑏;1 𝑎X)=0˜ 𝐹1(𝑏;X)(10) lim 𝑚→∞ ∣I𝑛+1 𝑚Σ−1M−1∣−𝑚=etr (−Σ−1M−1)(11) Eq. (10) can be proved by expressing the hypergeometric function in series [22, eq. (87)]. The constant of the zonal polynomial argument can be then extracted from it, so that the complex Pochhammer symbol vanishes when taking the limit. Eq. (11) can be derived by expressing the determinant as the eigenvalue product ∏𝑛 𝑖=1 (1+ 1 𝑚𝜆𝑖)−𝑚, so that each product component tends to the exponential function. V. MAXIMUM EIGENVALUE DISTRIBUTION The study of the maximum eigenvalue distribution depends on the eigenvalues of the matrix M. For a matrix Mwith distinct eigenvalues, we find the result in [17]. For a matrix M with two or more eigenvalues equals, it is not possible to use the result in [17], since we have an indeterminate form 0/0. Instead we should derive a new result thanks to the Lemma 2 in [25], which is based on applying multiple times L’Hˆ opital theorem. However, we are going to focus here in the simplest case where all the eigenvalues of Mare equals. For that case, we suppose that Mis a diagonal matrix with equals elements. This does not imply any loss of generality since the solution depends on the eigenvalues of Mand not necessarily the shadowing has to be spatially uncorrelated, i.e, Mhas not to be a diagonal matrix. Corollary 1: The joint distribution of the ordered eigenvalues 𝜙1<𝜙 2< ... < 𝜙 𝑛of Y∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M), when Σ=𝜎2 ΣI𝑛and M=𝜎2 𝑀I𝑛is given by 𝑓Φ(Φ)= 𝜋𝑛(𝑛−1) ∏𝑛 𝑖<𝑗(𝜙𝑖−𝜙𝑗)2 𝜎2𝑝𝑛 Σ˜ Γ𝑛(𝑛)˜ Γ𝑛(𝑝)(1+𝜎−2 Σ𝜎−2 𝑀)𝑛𝑚 ×∣Φ∣𝑝−𝑛etr(−𝜎−2 ΣΦ)1˜ 𝐹1(𝑚;𝑝;𝜎−2 ΣΦ 1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀), (12) where the confluent hypergeometric function is of one matrix argument and Φ=diag(𝜙𝑖). Proof : Applying [22, eq. (88)], the integration over the space of unitary matrices of the pdf of Yleads to the result. Next, the cdf of the maximum eigenvalue is derived. Lemma 3:Let𝜏=𝑝+𝑛, the cdf of the maximum eigenvalue of Y∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M), when Σ=𝜎2 ΣI𝑛and M=𝜎2 𝑀I𝑛, can be expressed as 𝐹𝜙𝑛(𝜙𝑛)=𝐶∣Υ(𝜙𝑛)∣,(13) where the constant 𝐶can be expressed as 𝐶= 𝜋𝑛(𝑛−1)[𝜎2 Σ(1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀)]𝑛(𝑛−1) 2 𝜎2𝑝𝑛 Σ˜ Γ𝑛(𝑛)˜ Γ𝑛(𝑝)(1+𝜎−2 Σ𝜎−2 𝑀)𝑛𝑚 .(14) When 𝑚<𝑝, the entries of the 𝑛×𝑛matrix Υ(𝑥)are given by the eq. (15) at the top of the next page, where 2ℱ1is the Gauss {Υ(𝑥)}𝑖,𝑗 =𝜎2𝑝−2𝑗+2 Σ(1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀)𝑖−𝑛 Γ(𝜏−𝑖−𝑗+1) [2ℱ1(𝜏−𝑖−𝑗+1,𝑚−𝑖+1;𝑝−𝑖+1; 1 1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀) −e−𝜎−2 Σ𝑥 𝜏−𝑖−𝑗 ∑ 𝑘=0 (𝜎−2 Σ𝑥)𝑘 𝑘!Φ1(𝑚−𝑖+1,𝜏 −𝑖−𝑗−𝑘+1,𝑝−𝑖+1,1 1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀 ,𝜎−2 Σ𝑥 1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀)] (15) hypergeometric function of scalar argument [26, eq. (15.1.1)], Φ1(⋅,⋅,⋅,⋅)is the confluent hypergeometric function of two scalar variables [27, eq. (9.261.1)], and Γ(𝑎)is the univariate gamma function. When 𝑚>𝑝, no closed-form expression is obtained, so we give the entries of Υ(𝑥)in the following integral form {Υ(𝑥)}𝑖,𝑗 =[𝜎2 Σ(1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀)]𝑖−𝑛{∫𝑥 0 𝑦𝜏−𝑖−𝑗e−𝜎−2 Σ𝑦 ×1ℱ1(𝑚−𝑖+1;𝑝−𝑖+1; 𝜎−2 Σ𝑦 1+𝜎2 Σ𝜎2 𝑀)𝑑𝑦}. (16) Finally, when 𝑚=𝑝,Yfollows a central Wishart distribution, so that its extreme eigenvalue distributions are given in [28]. Proof : The cdf of the maximum eigenvalue is derived by integrating the joint eigenvalue distribution in eq. (15) multiple times, such as indicated in [29, Appendix A]. As shown in [30, eq. (2.9)], the hypergeometric function of one matrix argument in eq. (12) can be expressed by a division of determinants, which gives a product of two determinants in eq. (12). Since the multiple integrals of a product of two determinants can be expressed as a determinant of a single integral [31], we finally obtain the integral form of eq. (16), which can be expressed as a finite sum of confluent hypergeometric functions of two scalar variables when 𝑚<𝑝. Lemma 4:Let𝜏=𝑝+𝑛, the pdf of the maximum eigenvalue Y∼Γ𝒲𝑛(𝑚, 𝑝, Σ,M), when Σ=𝜎2 ΣI𝑛and M=𝜎2 𝑀I𝑛, can be expressed as 𝑓𝜙𝑛(𝜙𝑛)=𝐶∣Υ(𝜙𝑛)∣ ×tr {Υ−1(𝜙𝑛)J(𝜙𝑛)}U(𝜙𝑛).(17) where the U(⋅)is the unit step function and the entries of the 𝑛×𝑛matrix J(𝑥)are given by the derivatives of the entries of Υ(𝑥)with respect to 𝑥, i.e., by removing the integral in eq. (16). Proof : The proof is straightforward by using the derivative formula of a determinant given by [32, eq. (9)]. Notice that this can be also applied in the case of distinct eigenvalues presented by [17] to obtain the other case pdf of the maximum eigenvalue. VI. NUMERICAL RESULTS In order to validate our analytical results, we compare them with Monte-Carlo simulations. Fig. 1 shows different simulated and theoretical curves of the cdf of the maximum eigenvalue when the shadowing has equals eigenvalues. We appreciate a perfect match between simulated and theoretical values. In turn, Fig. 2 allows to validate our theoretical expression for the pdf of the maximum eigenvalue. Fig. 1. Comparison of the theoretical and simulated cdf of the maximum eigenvalue of the MIMO Rician shadowed model for different matrix dimensions and various parameters. For all the cases 𝑝=4. Fig. 2. Theoretical and simulated pdf of the MIMO Rician shadowed maximum eigenvalue for the last case of Fig. 1. Interestingly, the MIMO Rician shadowed model is more flexible than other existing MIMO models. Fig. 3 shows the evolution of the pdf of the maximum eigenvalue as the parameter 𝑚grows, which prove that, when 𝑚→∞,the MIMO Rician shadowed maximum eigenvalue distribution tends to the MIMO Rician one, which was presented in [29]. We can also observe that we have a wide set of possible pdf of the maximum eigenvalue, which lay between the MIMO Rician case and the Rayleigh case for 𝑚≥𝑝. Also, when 𝑚<𝑝, we obtain pdfs which correspond to channels that present a fading more severe than the Rayleigh case, often called hyper-Rayleigh channels [33]. Fig. 3. Evolution of the pdf of the MIMO Rician shadowed maximum eigenvalue when 𝑚grows. The other parameters are fixed to 𝑛=2,𝑝=4 and 𝜎2 Σ=1, with 𝑚⋅𝜎 −2 𝑀=40. VII. CONCLUSIONS We have shown that the MIMO Rician shadowed model exhibits a powerful unification, since it includes the MIMO Rayleigh and MIMO Rician, together with the SISO 𝜅-𝜇shadowed, 𝜅-𝜇,𝜂-𝜇, Nakagami-𝑚, Nakagami-𝑞, Rician, Rayleigh and one-sided Gaussian. Therefore, it gives more flexibility to model any channel affected by different propagation conditions with a tractable statistic characterization than existing alternatives. Furthermore, the mgf of the Gram channel matrix and the cdf and pdf of its maximum eigenvalue for a shadowing with equal eigenvalues have been obtained in closed-form.
