OUTAGE PROBABILITY OF CELLULAR MOBILE RADIO IN THE PRESENCE OF MULTIPLE NAKAGAMI INTERFERERS WITH ARBITRARY FADING PARAMETERS

Probability of outage is one of the major performance considerations in the design of cellular mobile radio systems, and Nakagami distribution is considered as one of the most appropriate models for practical mobile channels. Closed-form solutions for the probability of outage with multiple Nakagami interferers were recently published under the integer assumption on the fading parameters of both desired signal and interferers, Most of these restrictions, however, can be removed. In this paper, we present a new technique to determine the probability of outage, which allows the parameters of all Nakagami interferers to be arbitrary. In comparison with the previous results, the new formula is more general and simpler to compute.
