We first establish an analytical expression for the probability law of the interference power when only Rayleigh multipath fading is considered. Next, focusing on a propagation environment where small-scale Rayleigh fading as well as large-scale effects, including attenuation with distance and lognormal shadowing, are taken into consideration, we elaborate a semi-analytical method to build up the histogram of the interference power distribution. From the results obtained for this combined small- and large-scale fading context, we then develop a statistical model for the interference power distribution. The interest of this model lies in the fact that it can be applied to a large range of values of the shadowing parameter. The proposed methods can also be easily extended to other types of networksShow less >
