Abstract :
A closed solution is presented showing the composite probability distribution of power levels derived from short term Rayleigh fading with superimposed long term lognormal variations of mean value. An example shows how the results can be applied to the prediction of bit error rates in a mobile radio data transmission channel, and how the error rate will vary with standard deviation of the lognormal distribution.
