Abstract
The statistics of the outage events in the reverse link of a direct sequenc e code-division multiple access (DS/CDMA) wireless system are investigated taking into account the effects of correlated Rician fading. The outage pro bability and the average fade duration are derived by assuming a constant m ultipath intensity profile, which includes a direct-path component in the f irst-path. Simulations have been carried out which validate the analytical results.
