Let X and Y be two independent Gaussian random variables with common variance σ2. The mean of X is m and Y is a zero-mean random variable. We define random variable V as V- VX2 +Y2. Show that: 0 <0 Where er cos "du is called the modified Bessel function of the first kind and zero order. The distribution of V is known as the Ricean distribution. Show that, in the special case of m 0, the Ricean distribution simplifies...
