Abstract
The -function of communication theory plays an important role in the error rate analysis in digital communication with the presence of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and generalized multipath fading conditions. In this paper we investigate several convergent and/or asymptotic expansions of for some limiting values of their variables and parameters: large values of z, large values of p, small values of η, and values of . We provide explicit and/or recursive algorithms for the computation of the coefficients of the expansions. Some numerical examples illustrate the accuracy of the approximations.
期刊介绍:
Integral Transforms and Special Functions belongs to the basic subjects of mathematical analysis, the theory of differential and integral equations, approximation theory, and to many other areas of pure and applied mathematics. Although centuries old, these subjects are under intense development, for use in pure and applied mathematics, physics, engineering and computer science. This stimulates continuous interest for researchers in these fields. The aim of Integral Transforms and Special Functions is to foster further growth by providing a means for the publication of important research on all aspects of the subjects.
