What is the significance of level crossing rate and fading statistics?

The level crossing rate (LCR) and average fade duration of a Rayleigh fading signal are two important statistics which are useful for designing error control codes and diversity schemes to be used in mobile communication systems, since it becomes possible to relate the time rate of change of the received signal to the signal level and velocity of the mobile.

How to Calculate Level Crossing Rate?
