  • Abstract
    We present an infinite-series representation for the average level crossing rate (LCR) of dual selection combining (SC) receivers, operating over correlated Rician fading channels, in the presence of Rayleigh cochannel interference (CCI). Numerical results are presented to illustrate the proposed mathematical analysis and to point out the effect of the branch correlation and fading severity on the average LCR.
