Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.

ABSTRACT: In this work, the ratio of product of two Nakagami-m random processes and Nakagami-m random process (RP) is analyzed. Statistical characteristics of ratio of product of two RPs and RP is applied in performance analysis of relay communication systems with two sections operating in multipath fading channel in the presence of co-channel interference. Here, multipath fading is with Nakagami-m distribution, and cochannel interference is exposed to the influence of Nakagami-m small scale fading. Level crossing rate (LCR) of defined ratio is obtained using some useful mathematical manipulations and formulas. The influence of fading parameters and signal powers on the LCR is assessed based on some plotted graphs. By selection of the channel parameters, the system performance could be improved and higher reliability of wireless links achieved, what is important for command information systems.

KEYWORDS: Nakagami-m fading, co-channel interference, random process, level crossing rate, command information systems
