Moble-Rado Sgnal A Closer Look At Classfcaton of Fadng Channels nondspersve channels channels dspersve n tme channels dspersve n frequency doubly dspersve channels Much of the followng materal on channel classfcaton s adopted from R.S. Kennedy, Fadng Dspersve Communcatons Channels, Wley,969, An excellent and comprehensve reference. Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels Raylegh Nakagam-Rce The receved sgnal for a Raylegh channel looks lke y( t) = a ( t) s ( t) where a ( t) s a complex random process representng statstcally ndependent ampltude and phase. The ampltude s Raylegh dstrbuted, whle the phase s unformly dstrbuted. Note that t s assumed that there are no path length dfferences. 4
Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) Ths can be derved as follows: N ( π π θ φ ) E = E c cos 2 f t + 2 f cos t + Z n c d n n n= where f s the max. Doppler shft, θ s the ncdent angle of d each path n, and φ s the phase of each path. We assume θ are n random, unformly dstrbuted over +[- π, π ]. n n Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) We can wrte the prevous n quadrature-carrer form E = T ( t)cos ω ( t) T ( t)sn ω ( t) where and z c c s c N ( π θ φ ) T ( t) = E c cos 2 f cos t + c n d n n n= N ( π θ φ ) T ( t) = E c sn 2 f cos t + s n d n n n= 5
Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) These n-phase and quadrature components are Gaussan RPs wth propertes: and T c = T = 2 2 2 2 c = s = z = s c p( T ) = s T T E E T T = e 2 2πσ 2 2 T / 2σ 2 2 for T = Tc, Ts and σ = E / 2. / 2 Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) 2 2 Thus, the envelope of Ez s r Tc Ts and obvously from before r 2 2 r / 2σ p( r) = e for r > 2 σ and p( θ ) = over [ π, π ]. 2π = + 6
Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) Smlarly, for a Rcan channel we defne the receved sgnal to be y( t) = z( t) s( t) where z( t) s gven as jϕ z( t) = Γ e + a( t). Note that we have a dffuse and a specular component. Ths model s useful where there s a strong LOS component as may occur n a mcrocell system. Moble-Rado Sgnal Nondspersve Channels (contnued) Recall that the envelope of the receved sgnal s gven as 2 2 r r Γ Γr p( r) = exp I 2 2 for r 2 > σ 2σ σ K = Γ σ K 2 2 Lettng / 2 then as we have the AWGN channel and as K we have the Raylegh channel. The Rcan channels are lkewse a subset of the Nakagam channel. 7
Moble-Rado Sgnal Channels Dspersve n Tme path length dfferences, but no Doppler shft for scatterers termed tme-flat fadng channel Assume the transmtted sgnal s( t) s tmelmted to [ T / 2, T / 2] and s bandlmted to [ W / 2, W / 2]. Gven a delay spread n Lee's notaton of, the receved sgnal y( t) = a s( t τ ) s then spread over the range T+ sec. Moble-Rado Sgnal Channels Dspersve n Tme (contnued) If << T then there s no apparent spreadng of the sgnal, but t may be dstorted. Example: Assume << / W. Recall that Bc, ths means that W << B. We can assume a sgnal of bandwdth W does c not change much n ntervals of duraton <<. W 8
Moble-Rado Sgnal Channels Dspersve n Tme (contnued) Then f W / Bc << s ( t τ ) s ( t) for τ < 2 so that y(t) s(t) a Therefore, the dstorton s due to attenuatons and phase shfts. Ths looks lke Raylegh fadng! Concluson: If W << B c ths channel looks nondspersve. Moble-Rado Sgnal Channels Dspersve n Tme (contnued) But, as W ncrease so that W / B the assumpton that s( t τ ) s( t) no longer holds. Then the scatterers can combne destructvely even f T >>. Thus, f / W << << T there s lttle tme spreadng n the receved waveform, but the receved waveform may be severely corrupted. c 9

Also, f B non-dspersve. d << the channel appears T d 2
