Entropy of the Sum of Two Independent, Non-Identically-Distributed Exponential Random Variables

arXiv:1609.02911

Abstract

In this letter, we give a concise, closed-form expression for the differential entropy of the sum of two independent, non-identically-distributed exponential random variables. The derivation is straightforward, but such a concise entropy has not been previously given in the literature. The usefulness of the expression is demonstrated with examples.
