The average level crossing rate and average fade duration of the output signal envelope of a selection diversity combiner, operating on independent, but nonidentical fading input branch signals are derived. The exact closed-form results are valid for arbitrary diversity order, and are obtained for Rayleigh, Ricean, and Nakagami fading input signals.
