“…Level crossing rate (LCR), average fade duration (AFD), and phase crossing rate (PCR) are also derived. In [16], general exact expressions for LCR and AFD of pure selection combining (PSC), equal-gain combining (EGC), and maximal-ratio combining (MRC) receivers operating on independent nonidentically distributed eta-mu fading channels are derived. The analytical results are fully validated by reducing them to particular cases for which the solutions are known.…”

The wireless communication system with maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver functioning over independent, identical multipath fading channels is examined in this paper. Received signal experiences -μ multipath fading resulting in second order performance measures degradation. The closed form expressions for average level crossing rate of MRC receiver output signal envelope is calculated. Numerical results are presented graphically to show influence of -μ fading parameters on second order performance measures of wireless communication system with MRC receiver. Keywords-maximal ratio combining (MRC); -μ multipath fading; average level crossing rate
