Abstract: | The probability of cochannel interference is evaluated for a mobile radio system operating in Rayleigh fading and log-normal shadowing environment. All cochannel cells surrounding the base station are taken into consideration in this evaluation. The results obtained are used to calculate the reuse distance and the cluster size (number of cells in a group). The blocking probability, the number of channels in each cell, the protection ratio, and the standard deviation are taken as parameters in this evaluation. The results show that shadowing has a severe effect on the interference level and on the channel reuse distance ratio. |
