Abstract

Exact, closed-form and general expressions of the marginal and joint moments as well as of the correlation coefficient of the instantaneous powers of two Ricean signals are derived. All statistics are expressed as finite sums of simple functions of the model parameters. The model includes environments where the Ricean factor and the mean power of one signal are different from their counterparts of the other signal. Some plots illustrate the generalised power correlation coefficient provided in this work. Coherence parameters are derived and practical values for system design are suggested.
