Abstract:
The probability density functions (PDFs) of derivatives in two time instants for output signals from dual branch Switch and Stay Combiner (SSC) in the presence of Rician fading are determined in this paper. The second order statistics such as the average level crossing rate and the average fade duration can be calculated by using obtained closed-form expressions.
