A simulation program has been carried out to further check the simplified method proposed by Immovilli and Merani for the analytical evaluation of outage probability in cellular mobile radio systems, due to cochannel interference and random propagation phenomena, nonselective in type. The results of the two different procedures show an excellent agreement.

The effects of cochannel interference in a mobile radio network are investigated, to highlight a method with which to analytically evaluate the corresponding outage probability in an extremely simplified manner. The general methodology presented can in particular be applied when Rayleigh fading, log-normal shadowing and path losses larger than those in free space are considered.
