1 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMMUNICATIONS, VOL. 59, NO., NOVEMBER Chernoff-Type Bounds for the Gaussian Error Function Seok-Ho Chang, Member, IEEE, Pamela C. Cosman, Fellow, IEEE, and Laurence B. Milstein, Fellow, IEEE Abstract We study single-term exponential-type bounds (also known as Chernoff-type bounds on the Gaussian error function. This type of bound is analytically the simplest such that the performance metrics in most fading channel models can be expressed in a concise closed form. We derive the conditions for a general single-term exponential function to be an upper or lower bound on the Gaussian error function. We prove that there exists no tighter single-term exponential upper bound beyond the Chernoff bound employing a factor of one-half. Regarding the lower bound, we prove that the single-term exponential lower bound of this letter outperforms previous work. Numerical results show that the tightness of our lower bound is comparable to that of previous work employing eight exponential terms. Index Terms Bounds, error function, exponential, Gaussian Q-function. [, Table.]. In fact, the Chernoff upper bound, which is known to be much tighter than the Chebyshev upper bound, also has a single exponential-type expression for Q(x [6]. This letter studies the single exponential-type or Chernofftype [7] bound on Q(x. We recognize that the bound in [] can become arbitrarily close to the exact Q(x by increasing the number of terms in the series, as do other series representations of Q(x [7][8]. However, the efficiency of these series is determined by the tightness combined with the number of terms used in the series [8]. Note that the single exponential-type bound on the first-order Marcum Q-function is presented in [8, eqs. (3 and (4], and to our knowledge, this type of bound on the Gaussian Q-function has not been studied. I. INTRODUCTION THE Gaussian Q-function, Q(x, or, equivalently, the complementary error function, erfc(x, play an important role in the performance analysis of many communication systems. However, there is no known closed-form expression for Q(x [, Ch. 4..] and the analytical problems associated with it have provoked much interest in finding its bounds or approximations for decades [] [0]. System performance such as average bit, symbol, or block error probabilities in fading channels typically include the expectation of Q(x or its powers with regard to a random variable that characterizes the fading channel (i.e., E[Q N (x], where N is a positive integer []. Therefore, the bounds or approximations of Q(x need to be both tight and analytically simple enough to express the above performance metrics in closed-form. For example, the upper and lower bounds given in [] [5] are quite tight as shown in [6, Fig. ], but they are not easily integrable with regard to random variables representing fading channels. An exponential-type bound on Q(x was presented in []. The bound given in [, eq. (8] employs a series of exponential terms, and a sufficient condition for the series to be an upper or lower bound on the error function is presented. This bound has received attention [] [5] because exponential functions are easily integrable with regard to a wide variety of fading channel models, such as Rayleigh, Rician and Nakagami-m channels (m is the Nakagami fading parameter Paper approved by A.

PRELIMINARIES The Gaussian Q-function is defined as Q(x = ( x erfc, x 0 ( where /$5.00 c 0 IEEE erfc(x = e t dt, x 0 ( x is the complementary error function. In this letter, we analyze erfc(x, but the results can be directly applied to Q(x. For the Gaussian distribution, the Chernoff bound is given by erfc(x exp ( x [6]. Based on the results of Jacobs [9] and Hellman and Raviv [0], a factor of one-half can be applied, and the bound becomes erfc(x exp ( x [, Appendix 4B] (this bound also can be derived in other ways [7, eq. (][, eq. (.][3]. As given, the bound has a single-term exponential expression, and this simple expression makes it possible to analyze fading communication systems in a concise closed form [, Table.] without numerical integration. Consider the following general exponential form: f(x =α exp ( βx, x 0 (3 where α>0 and β>0 are real numbers. In the following, we derive the conditions for this to be the upper or lower bound on erfc(x. III. UPPER BOUND Theorem : The function f(x is an upper bound of erfc(x if and only if α and 0 <β. Proof: We define a function g(x: g(x =α exp ( βx erfc(x, x 0 (4 for α>0 and β>0. We will prove that g(x 0 if and only if α and 0 <β.
2 940 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMMUNICATIONS, VOL. 59, NO., NOVEMBER 0 i We first show that g(x 0 if α and 0 <β. From (4, where dg(x dx = αβx exp ( βx + exp ( x =exp ( x v (x, x 0 (5 v(x = αβx exp ( ( β x +. (6 From (6, v(0 = /. In addition, if 0 <β, wehave lim x v(x = and dv(x dx = αβ exp ( ( β x { ( β x + } < 0 (7 Hence, v(x is zero only at a point x 0 (0,. Thatis, v(x > 0 for 0 x < x 0,andv(x < 0 for x > x 0. Therefore, from (5, we have dg(x/dx > 0 for 0 x<x 0, and dg(x/dx < 0 for x>x 0.If0 <β, from (4, we also have lim x g(x = 0 If α, g(0 satisfies g(0 = α 0 From these, it follows that g(x 0 if α and 0 <β. ii We next show that g(x 0 does not hold if β>. Using integration by parts, it can be shown that [, eq. (.] erfc(x ( x x exp ( x, x > 0. (8 Let ρ denote the ratio of the lower bound given by (8 to the function f(x for x>0. Then, it can be shown that ρ is given by ρ = ( x α x 3 exp ( (β x, x > 0. (9 If β>, from L Hospital s rule, we have ( (β x 3 lim ρ = lim x x α (β 3 x 3x exp ( (β x = (0 which shows that f(x is not the upper bound. iii If α<, from (4, we have g(0 = α < 0. From i, ii, and iii, it is seen that g(x 0 if and only if α and 0 <β. Corollary : The function f(x is the tightest upper bound on erfc(x if and only if α =and β =. Proof: Let f(x, α, β denote the function given by (3. Then, it can be easily shown that f(x, α, β is strictly increasing in α for x 0, and strictly decreasing in β for x>0. Therefore, smaller α or larger β tightens the upper bound. From Theorem, it is seen that f(x is the tightest if and only if α =and β =. Corollary indicates that the Chernoff bound with a factor of one-half, erfc(x exp ( x, is the tightest upper bound on erfc(x among any upper bounds which can be expressed in the form of (3. IV. LOWER BOUND Theorem : The function f(x is a lower bound of erfc(x if e β β> and 0 <α. ( β Proof: Suppose that ( is satisfied. We will show that g(x, given by (4, satisfies g(x 0. From (7, it is seen that dv(x/dx =0only at x = x / (β in the range of x 0. From(6, and thus, d v(x dx =4αβ (β x exp ( ( β x { ( β x +3 } ( d v(x dx =4 αβ ( β exp > 0. (3 Hence, v(x has its minimum at x = x, and from (6, v (x is given by v (x = ( αβ β exp +. (4 From the supposition that α satisfies (, we have v(x v (x 0. Hence, from (5, g(x is a non-decreasing function. We define a function w (β: w(β = e β, β >. (5 β It can be shown that ( dw(β e β + = dβ β β d ( w(β e 3β β +8 dβ = β 3 (β 3/ (6. (7 From (6, it is seen that dw(β/dβ =0only at β = β in the range of β>. From(7,wealsohave d w(β e dβ = < 0. (8 3 Hence, w(β has its maximum at β = β,andw(β is given by e w (β = <. (9 From w(β w(β < and the supposition of α w(β, it follows that α<. Hence, from (4, we have g(0 = α < 0. By the supposition of β>, wealsohavelim x g(x = 0. Lastly, since g(x is non-decreasing as stated below (4, it follows that g(x 0. We examine the tightness of the lower bound achieved by the sufficient condition of Theorem. Note that from (3, a larger α tightens the lower bound, and thus from Theorem, we consider α = w(β, which is defined in (5. It is clear
3 CHANG et al.: CHERNOFF-TYPE BOUNDS FOR THE GAUSSIAN ERROR FUNCTION 94 that w( = 0, w( = e/, and from (6, w(β is nondecreasing for β. From this, it can be shown that the inverse of α = w(β for β is e β = for 0 α + e. (0 α For comparison purposes, we also consider a single-term exponential lower bound provided by []. From [, eqs. (8, (9, and (6], for x>0, the lower bound employing a series of exponential terms can be written as h(x, θ,,θ N = N i= (θ i θ i exp ( x sin θ i ( where θ,,θ N are arbitrary values satisfying 0 θ θ N θ N = / [, eq. (8]. From (, a single exponential term lower bound (i.e., N =isgivenby h(x, θ = ( θ exp ( x sin θ, x > 0 ( for 0 θ.letδ = θ / and λ =/ sin θ. Then, it can be shown that ( is expressed as h(x =δ exp ( λx, x > 0 (3 where λ =sec δ for 0 δ. (4 Note that from (3 and (3, smaller exponents β and λ tighten the lower bound f(x and h(x for given α and δ, respectively. In the following, we compare the magnitude of β and λ given by (0 and (4, respectively. We will show that for 0 <x e/, sec x>. (5 + e x It can be shown that (5 is equivalent to e x > cos x. (6 i It is obvious that for / < x e/, we have cos x < 0 and thus (6 holds. ii For 0 <x /, cos x 0 and thus (6 is equivalent to e x > cos x ( ( sin x e x sin x + sin x > We define a function p(x: From (8, we have e x > 0 x. (7 e p(x =sinx p(0 = 0 and p x. (8 e ( = > 0. (9 e λ from Eq. (4, Ref. [] β from Eq. (0, This letter α or δ Fig.. Exponents β and λ versus α or δ, in the functions of α exp ( βx of this letter and δ exp ( λx of []. For 0 <x /, p(x is strictly concave since d p(x dx = sin x < 0. (30 From (9 and (30, it is seen that for 0 <x /, p(x > 0 is satisfied, and thus (6 holds for 0 <x /. As a result, from i and ii, (6 is satisfied for 0 <x e/. We have proved the single exponential lower bound achieved by Theorem is tighter than that provided by []. In Fig., β and λ are plotted versus α or δ using (0 and (4. V. NUMERICAL EVALUATION In this section, we numerically evaluate how tightly a single exponential function, given by (3, bounds erfc(x. For the lower bound, from Theorem, we consider e β f(x, β = exp ( βx, x > 0 (3 β for β. We also consider the lower bound in [], h(x, θ,,θ N, which is given by (. To compare the tightness of f(x, β and h(x, θ,,θ N,weusethe accuracy metric given in [, eq.

The integral of the relative error in (3 (i.e., the average relative error with the optimal parameters is also listed in Table I (a and Table II. From Fig., Table I (a and Table II, it is seen that the single exponential lower bound of this letter outperforms that of [], as proved in Section IV. Further, it is observed that the tightness of the lower bound of this letter is comparable to that of the lower bound in [] employing eight exponential terms. As an example of an application, we next consider the average pairwise error probability (PEP of space-time codes (STCs in the same scenario as in [, Sec. VII. A] and [4, Sec. IV. B], where a four-state quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK, two transmit and one receive antennas, and an independent Rayleigh fading channel are assumed. The average PEP, P (X ˆX, is given by [, eq. (36] as P (X ˆX = E [ erfc ( ] ρ,whereρistheinstantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR per symbol. Hence, from (, the lower bound on P (X ˆX provided by [] is given by P (X ˆX N E [h ( ρ, θ,,θ N ] i= N ( = (θ i θ i Φ sin θ i i= i= (θ i θ i (33 where Φ(s E [exp (sρ] is the moment-generating function associated with the random variable ρ [, eq.

Hence, from (33, the lower bound of P (X ˆX provided by [], h STC (γ s,θ,,θ N,isgivenby P (X ˆX N ( + sin γ s θ i h STC (γ s,θ,,θ N. (34 In the same way as in (33 and (34, from (3, the lower bound of P (X ˆX provided by this letter, f STC (γ s,β, is derived as P (X ˆX e β E [f( ρ, β] = ( + βγ s β f STC (γ s,β. (35 The exact expression for the average PEP is given by [4, eq. (6] as: { P (X ˆX = ( γs ( } k k. +γ s k 4( + γ k=0 s (36 Similar to (3, the optimal parameters is obtained as (37 on the next page. Fig. 3 depicts the numerical evaluation of the lower bounds given by (34 and (35 with the optimal parameters obtained from (37, where 0 log 0 R = 4 (db and 0 log 0 R =0(dB is used (note that 0 log 0 ( is used for decibel scale. The integral of the relative error in (37 with the optimal parameters is also listed in Table I (b and Table III. From Fig. 3, Table I (b and Table III, it is also seen that the single exponential lower bound of this letter outperforms that of []. Further, the tightness of the lower bound of this letter is comparable to that of the lower bound in [] employing eight exponential terms.

The Chernoff upper bound with a factor of one-half, which is proved to be the tightest in Section III, is also plotted in Figs. and 3. Compared to the lower bound, this single exponential upper bound is not tight. The advantage of employing the Chernoff upper bound, which is widely used in the literature, is focused on the simplicity of the expression. For example, the average block error probability in fading channels typically involves E [ Q N (x ] with a high order of N [0], and the use of single-term exponential bound on Q(x instead of multipleterms leads to a concise closed-form even for large N. VI. CONCLUSION One of the principal reasons for using the bounds on Q(x is to obtain a simple form that facilitates analysis of communication systems. In this letter, we studied single-term exponential-type bounds on Q(x. This type of bound is analytically the simplest such that the performance metrics such as average bit, symbol, or block error probabilities can be expressed in a concise closed form for a wide variety of fading channel models. We derived the conditions for such functions to be upper or lower bounds on Q(x. We proved that there exists no tighter single-term exponential upper bound beyond the Chernoff bound employing a factor of one-half. Regarding the lower bound, we proved that the single exponential lower bound achieved in this letter outperforms that provided by []. In fact, numerical results showed that the tightness of the single-term lower bound of this letter is comparable to that of the lower bound in [] employing eight exponential terms. REFERENCES [] M.
