U ovom radu je izložena analiza makrovišestrukog prijama za slučaj uporabe tehnike prostornog raščlanjenja sa selektivnim kombiniranjem (SC – selection combining) u prisustvu korelacijske Gamma sjene. Na mikrorazinama razmatrane su tehnike prostornog raščlanjenja kombiniranja s maksimalnim odnosom (MRC – maximal ratio combining) za ulazne korelirane grane, kako bi se sprječio utjecaj brzog Nakagami-m fedinga. Prvo su izvedeni izrazi u zatvorenom obliku za statističke karakteristike sustava drugog reda: srednji broj osnih presjeka (LCR – level crossing rate) i srednje vrijeme trajanja slabljenja (AFD – average fade duration). Na osnovu ovih izraza, kroz njihove priraštaje analiziran je utjecaj korelacije na makrorazini (korelacije zasjenjenja) na karakteristike sustava. Analiza prezentirana u ovom radu, može biti od značaja u procesu projektiranja makroraščlanjenih sustava.In this paper an analysis of selection combining (SC) macrodiversity reception performed in correlated Gamma shadowing environment will be presented. At each microlevel maximal ratio combining (MRC) with correlated branches is observed, for mitigating effects of Nakagami-m short-time fading. First, novel closed form expressions are derived for second order statistical measures, level crossing rate (LCR) and average fade duration (AFD). Capitalizing on these expressions, the influence of correlation at macrolevel (shadowing correlation) will be analysed through their derivatives. Provided analysis could find application in current macrodiversity system design
