چکیده

Several areas in signal processing and communications rely on various tools in order statistics. Studying the scaling of the extreme values of iid random variables is of particular interest as it is sometimes only possible to make meaningful statements in the large number of variables case. This paper develops a new approach to finding the scaling of the minimum of iid variables by studying the behavior of the CDF and its derivatives at one point, or equivalently by studying the behavior of the characteristic function. The theory developed is used to study the scaling of several types of random variables and is confirmed by simulations.

A Recursive Approximation Approach of non-iid Lognormal Random Variables Summation in Cellular Systems

Co-channel interference is a major factor in limiting the capacity and link quality in cellular communications. As the co-channel interference is modeled by lognormal distribution, sum of the co-channel interferences of neighboring cells is represented by the sum of lognormal Random Variables (RVs) which has no closed-form expression. Assuming independent, identically distributed (iid) RVs, the...

Joint Distribution of Minimum of N Iid Exponential Random Variables and Poisson Marginal

We introduced a random vector , where has Poisson distribution and are minimum of independent and identically distributed exponential random variables. We present fundamental properties of this vector such as PDF, CDF and stochastic representations. Our results include explicit formulas for marginal and conditional distributions, moments and moments generating functions. We also derive moments ...

The rates of convergence for generalized entropy of the normalized sums of IID random variables

We consider the generalized differential entropy of normalized sums of independent and identically distributed (IID) continuous random variables. We prove that the Rényi entropy and Tsallis entropy of order α (α > 0) of the normalized sum of IID continuous random variables with bounded moments are convergent to the corresponding Rényi entropy and Tsallis entropy of the Gaussian limit, and obtai...

Record Range of Uniform Distribution

We consider a sequence of independent and identicaly distributed (iid) random variables with absolutely continuous distribution function F(x) and probability density function (pdf) f(x). Let Rnl be the largest observation after observing nth record and R(ns) be the smallest observation after observing the nth record. Then we say Wnr = Rnl− R(ns), n > 1, as the nth record range. We will c...

A Fuzzy Random Minimum Cost Network Flow Programming Problem

In this paper, a fuzzy random minimum cost flow problem is presented. In this problem, cost parameters and decision variables are fuzzy random variables and fuzzy numbers respectively. The object of the problem is to find optimal flows of a capacitated network. Then, two algorithms are developed to solve the problem based on Er-expected value of fuzzy random variables and chance-constrained pro...
