  • Abstract
    We propose a simple accurate method for generating autocorrelated Nakagami-m envelope sequences. The method allows for arbitrary values of fading parameter and nonisotropic fading scenarios. In essence, Nakagami-m samples are first drawn and then rearranged to match the Nakagami-m autocorrelation. The rearrangement is made in accordance with the rank statistics of an underlying Rayleigh reference sequence with the desired autocorrelation. Examples illustrate the excellent performance of the new method
