Wireless Personal Communications Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

In a recent paper, two formulae for the average level crossing rate and fade duration at the output of dual-branch selection diversity receivers have been derived. In this short communication, some previously published works including results being in a more general setting are reviewed and compared.
