Let $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_N$ be pairwise independent random variables such that:
- the $X_i$ may or may not have the same probability distribution
- $N$ itself may also be a (discrete) random variable.
Let:
- $S_N : X_1 + X_2 + \cdots + X_N$
Then the probability distribution of $S_N$ is known as a compound distribution.
