The kappa-mu Distribution includes the Rice and the Nakagami-m distributions as special cases. The eta-mu Distribution includes the Hoyt and the Nakagami-m distributions as special cases. Therefore, in both fading distributions, the One-Sided Gaussian and the Rayleigh distributions also constitute special cases and the Lognormal distribution may be well-approximated. Preliminary results show that these new distributions provide a very good fitting to experimental data.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Communication and Information Systems}, author={Yacoub, Michel Daoud}, year={2017}, month={May}, pages={1–13} }
