Abstract :
The problem of efficiently evaluating the probability that the magnitude squared of one complex Gaussian random variable is less than the magnitude squared of another, possibly correlated, complex Gaussian random variable is addressed. This is known as an error probability of the Rician-type. In this paper, a bounding approach is taken. Tight upper and lower bounds are obtained, which together provide very accurate estimates of the actual error probability. Some applications of the bounds are presented to show their general applicability and to illustrate their tightness
