The problem here is that, in both cases, a great variety of periods are given the labels of Persian Empire and Assyrian Empire, when in fact there were periods of small area coverage or different rulers and influence by the basic ethnic peoples and the ruling classes, which were sometimes foreign. And this line of thought often entwines both peoples as if they were the same at some periods. 'Persian Empire' has been applied spasmodically to periods between 627 BCE to 1979 CE, while similarly Assyrian Empire' has been used to label periods from 25th Century BCE to 627 CE.
The main periods were Persia 549 to 330 BCE; Assyria 991 to 627 BCE. But there will be many people who will claim all sorts of periods outside that so where do you go?
