Connections Between the Generalized Marcum $Q$-Function and a Class of Hypergeometric Functions

Abstract: This paper presents a new connection between the generalized Marcum-Q function and the confluent hypergeometric function of two variables, Φ 3 . This result is then applied to the closed-form characterization of the bivariate Nakagami-m distribution and of the distribution of the minimum eigenvalue of correlated non-central Wishart matrices, both important in communication theory. New expressions for the corresponding cumulative distributions are obtained and a number of communication-theoretic problems involv… Show more

“…In Fig. 1, we represent ε 1 (α, x) for different values of α, considering the approximations introduced in (3) and (6). When the Gaussian Q-function approximation is used, for small values of α, we observe how a relatively large value of x ≈ 3.5 is required to obtain an error in the range of 1%.…”
