Abstract

Complex random vectors are usually described by their covariance matrix. This is insufficient for a complete description of second-order statistics, and another matrix called the relation matrix is necessary. Some of its properties are analyzed and used to express the probability density function of normal complex vectors. Various consequences are presented
