Abstract :
This paper relies on a characteristic function based approach to compute the level crossing rate and average outage duration of interference-limited wireless communication systems. The analytical results are quite general and are applicable to systems in which users are subject to nonidentically distributed Rician fading. These results are confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations and some numerical examples are discussed and interpreted.
