Abstract :
Coherent cumulation of interference signals is modelled in an environment of Rayleigh fading and log-normal shadowing under the influence of near-far effect. The interference model is used to investigate the performance of mobile packet radio networks using the inhibit-sense multiple access protocol. Numerical results are presented, indicating the effect of individual and combined propagation impairments on channel capacity. It is shown that the combined effect of propagation impairments of the real channel enhances the channel capacity.<>
