Outage probability

In Information theory, outage probability of a communication channel is the probability that a given information rate is not supported, because of variable channel capacity. Outage probability is defined as the probability that information rate is less than the required threshold information rate. It is the probability that an outage will occur within a specified time period.[1]

Slow-fading channel

For example, the channel capacity for slow-fading channel is C = log2(1 + h2 SNR), where h is the fading coefficient and SNR is a signal to noise ratio without fading. As C is random, no constant rate is available. There may be a chance that information rate may go below to required threshold level. For slow fading channel, outage probability = P(C < r) = P(log2(1 + h2 SNR) < r), where r is the required threshold information rate.

gollark: We could factor all post creation or updation into an actual pythonous function, or make it a custom SQLite function.
gollark: Alternatively, we could have a simple regex on top of that for filtering tag queries out.
gollark: If we put the tags into the FTS table as strings then it could be done using the column specific syntax thing.
gollark: I assume your issue is with that and not the actual FTS ranking/searching?
gollark: Or we could parse the output HTML.
