Characterization of fading multipath channels(1) The multipath fading channels with additive noise Time spread phenomenon of multipath channels (Unpredictable) Time-variant factors Delay Number of spreads Size of the receive pulses 4

Characterization of fading multipath channels(2) Transmitted signal S(t)= Re{s l (t)e i2πf ct } Received signal in absence of additive noise: r t = න c τ; t s t τ dτ = c τ; t Re{sl (t τ)e j2πf c(t τ) } dτ )} Re = c τ; t sl (t τ) e j2πf cτ dτ)e j2πf ct } =Re{(c τ; t e j2πf cτ s l (t))e j2πf ct } c l (τ; t)=c τ; t e j2πf cτ and c τ; t = c l (τ; t) 5

Characterization of fading multipath channels(3) Note that now it is not appropriate to write s l (t) c l (t) because t and τ are now specifically for time argument and convolution argument, respectively! We should perhaps write s l (t) c l (τ)and s l t c l τ; t which respectively denote: And =( τ ) s l (t) c l cl τ s l t τ dτ = s l t c l τ; t cl τ; t s l (t τ)dτ 6

Rayleigh and Rician The measurement suggests that c l τ; t is a 2-D Gaussian random process in t (not in τ), which can be supported by the central limit theorem (CT) because it is the sum effect of many paths. If zero mean, c l τ; t is Rayleigh distributed. The channel is said to be a Rayleigh fading channel. If nonzero mean, c l τ; t is Rician distributed. The channel is said to be a Rician fading channel. When diversity technique is used, c l Nakagami m-distribution. τ; t can be well modeled by 7

ҧ Channel correlation Function (1) Assumption(WSS) Assume c l τ; t is WSS in t. τ, τ; t R cl is only a function of time difference t. = E{c l ( τ; ҧ t + t)c l (τ; t)} Assumption (Uncorrelated scattering or US of a WSS channel) For τ ҧ τ, assume c l τ; ҧ t and c l τ; t are uncorrelated for any t 1, t 2. τ is the convolution argument and actually represents the delay for a certain path. Assumption (Math definition of US) R cl τ, ҧ τ; t =R cl τ; t δ( τ- ҧ τ) It may appear unnatural to define the autocorrelation function of a channel impulse response using the Dirac delta function. However, we have already learned that τ is the convolution argument, and δ(τ ) is the impulse response of the identity channel. 8

Channel correlation(2) This somehow hints that there is a connection between channel impulse response and Dirac delta function. Recall that a WSS white (noise) process z(τ ) is defined based on R z ( τ) = E{z( τ+τ ) z (τ)}= N 0 2 δ( τ) We can extensively view that the autocorrelation function of a 2-dimensional WSS white noise z(τ ; t) is defined as E{z( τ+τ ; t 1 ) z (τ ; t 2 )}= N 0(t 1,t 2 ) δ( τ) 2 US indicates that the accumulated power correlation from all other paths is essentially zero! Some researchers interpret US as zero-correlation scattering. So, from this, they don t interpret it as E{z( τ+τ ; t 1 ) z (τ ; t 2 )}=E{z( τ+τ ; t 1 )} E{z (τ ; t 2 )}=0 which requires zero-mean assumption but simply say E{z( τ+τ ; t 1 ) z (τ ; t 2 )}=0 when τ 0. 9

Multipath intensity profile of a US- WSS channel The multipath intensity profile or delay power spectrum for a US- WSS multipath fading channel is given by: R cl τ = R cl (τ; t = 0). It can be interpreted as the average signal power remained after delay τ. The multipath spread or delay spread of a US-WSS multipath fading channel The multipath spread is the range of τ over which R cl (τ) is essentially non-zero; it is usually denoted by T m. 10

Multipath intensity profile of a US-WSS channel Each τ corresponds to one path. No Tx power will remain at Rx for paths with delay τ >T m. 11

Transfer function of a multipath fading channel The transfer function of a channel impulse response c l (τ ; t) is the Fourier transform with respect to the convolutional argument τ : C l (f; t) = න Property: If c l (τ; t)is WSS, so is c l f; t. c l (τ; t)e j2πft dτ The autocorrelation function of WSS c l f; t is equal to: f, ҧ f; t = E{C l ( f; t+t) ҧ C l (f; t)} R cl 12

R cl Transfer function of a multipath fading channel (2) With an additional US assumption f, ҧ f; t = E{C l ( ҧ f; t+t) C l (f; t)} = } E cl ( τ; ҧ t + t)e j2πfതτ ҧ dτ cl (τ; t)e j2πfτ dτ} Rcl = τ; t δ(τ τ) e j2π(fτ fതτ) ҧ dτ dτҧ = Rcl τ; t e j2πτ( ҧ f f) dτ =R cl f; t where f= ҧ f f For a US-WSS multipath fading channel, R cl f; t = E{C l ( f + f; t+t) C l (f; t)} This is often called spaced-frequency, spaced-time correlation function of a US-WSS channel. 13

For the case of t = 0, we have Coherent bandwidth = R cl f; t Rcl τ; t e j2πτ( f) dτ = R cl f Rcl τ e j2πτ( f) dτ Recall that R cl τ = 0 outside [0, T m ). In freq domain, ( f) c = 1 T m is correspondingly called coherent bandwidth. R C f رابطه R c τ بین و 14

Example Given R cl τ =10 7 10 7 τ for 0 τ <100ns. Then R cl f = 107 4 π f 2 e j2π10 7 f 1 1 2π f j 15

Coherent bandwidth since the channel output due to input s l is equal to: r l f =s l f C l f; t where we abuse the notations to denote the Fourier transforms of r l t and s l t respectively as r l f and s l f,we would say r l f =s l f C l f; t will have weak (power) affection on r l f+ f =s l f + f C l f + f; t when f >( f) c 16

If signal transmitted bandwidth B >( f) c, the channel is called frequency selective. If signal transmitted bandwidth B < ( f) c, the channel is called frequency non-selective Coherent bandwidth (2) For frequency selective channels, the signal shape is more severely distorted than that of frequency non-selective channels. Criterion for frequency selectivity: 1 B >( f) c > 1 T< T T T m. m 17

Time varying characterization: Doppler Doppler effect appears via the argument t. 18

Doppler power spectrum of a US- WSS channel (2) The Doppler power spectrum is =( λ ) S cl Rcl f = 0; t e j2πλ( f) t where λ is referred to as the Doppler frequency. B d = Doppler spread is the range such that S cl (λ)is essentially zero. ( t) c = 1 is called the coherence time. B d If symbol period T > ( t) c, the channel is classified as Fast Fading. i.e., channel statistics changes within one symbol! If symbol period T < ( t) c, the channel is classified as Slow Fading. 19

The scattering function can be used to identify delay spread and Doppler spread at the same time. Scattering function (2) 22

Example. Medium-range tropospheric scatter channel Scattering function of a medium-range tropospheric scatter channel. The taps delay increment is 0.1 μs. 3dB BW =1~ 30 Hz 23

Example study of delay spread The median delay spread is the 50% value, meaning that 50% of all channels has a delay spread that is lower than the median value. Clearly, the median value is not so interesting for designing a wireless link, because you want to guarantee that the link works for at least 90% or 99% of all channels. Therefore the second column gives the measured maximum delay spread values. The reason to use maximum delay spread instead of a 90% or 99% value is that many papers only mention the maximum value. From the papers that do present cumulative distribution functions of their measured delay spreads, it can be deduced that the 99% value is only a few percent smaller than the maximum delay spread. 24

Measured delay spread Measured delay spreads in frequency range of 800M to 1.5 GHz (surveyed by Richard van Nee) 25

Measured delay spread(2) Measured delay spreads in frequency range of 1.8 GHz to 2.4 GHz (surveyed by Richard van Nee) 26

Measured delay spread(3) Measured delay spreads in frequency range of 4 GHz to 6 GHz (surveyed by Richard van Nee) Conclusion by Richard van Nee: Measurements done at different frequencies show the multipath channel characteristics are almost the same from 1 to 5 GHz. 27

Jakes model: Example A widely used model for Doppler power spectrum is the so-called Jakes model (Jakes, 1974) R cl ( t)=j 0 2πf m t And S cl = 1 1 πf m 1 (λτf m ) 2 λ < f m 0 O. W. f m = vf c /c is the maximum Doppler shift v is the vehicle speed (m/s) c is the light speed (3 10^8 m/s) f c is the carrier frequency J 0 is the zero-order Bessel function of the first kind 28

Doppler shift Difference in path length = (sin θ ) 2 +(cos θ + v. t) 2 Phase change φ = 2π Τ c f c = 2 + 2. v. t. cos θ + (v. t) 2 29

Jakes model Here, a rough (and not so rigorous) derivation is provided for Jakes model. Just to give you a rough idea of how this model is obtained. Suppose τ (t) is the delay of some path. + τ τ t+ t τ(t) t = lim = lim c + c= lim c Δt 0 t Δt 0 t Δt 0 t = v c cos(θ) τ t v c cos(θ)+τ 0 (Assume for simplicity τ 0 = 0.) c = lim c t Δt 0 31

Jakes model (2) Assume that (i) c(τ; t) a δ (τ τ (t )) (a constant attenuation single path system); (ii) c (τ; t) a δ(τ τ (t )) WSS c l τ; t =c(τ; t) e j2πf cτ a δ (τ τ (t )) e j2πf cτ (t ) a δ (τ (v/c) cos(θ )t) e j2πf c(v/c) cos(θ )t =a δ (τ (f m /f c ) cos(θ )t) e j2πf m cos(θ )t R cl τ; t = න E{c l ( τ; ҧ t+t) c l (τ; t)} dτҧ = E{a δ (τ (fm /f c ) cos(θ )(t+ t)) e j2πf m cos(θ)(t+ t). a δ (τ (f m /f c ) cos(θ )t) e j2πfmcos(θ)t } dτҧ =a 2. E{e j2πf m cos(θ ) t } δ (τ (f m /f c ) cos(θ)t) Since Rcl τ; t is nothing to do with t, we take t = 0 for simplicity; thus 32

E{e j2πf m cos(θ ) t } =J 0 (2πf m t) where the last step is valid if θ uniformly distributed over [ π, π), and a = 1. θ can be treated as uniformly distributed over [ π, π) and independent of attenuation α and delay path τ. 33

Channel model from IEEE 802.11 Handbook A consistent channel model is required to allow comparison among different WAN systems. The IEEE 802.11 Working Group adopted the following channel model as the baseline for predicting multipath for modulations used in IEEE 802.11a and IEEE 802.11b, which is ideal for software simulations. The phase is uniformly distributed. The magnitude is Rayleigh distributed with average power decaying exponentially. 34

Statistical models for fading channel (1) In addition to zero-mean Gaussian (Rayleigh), non-zero-mean Gaussian (Rice) and Nakagami-m distributions, there are other models for c l τ; t have been proposed in literature. Example. Channels with a direct path and a single multipath component, such as airplane-to-ground communications c l τ; t =αδ τ + β(t)δ(τ τ 0 (t)) where α controls the power in the direct path and is named specular component, and β(t) is modeled as zero-mean Gaussian 39

Example. Statistical models(2) Microwave OS radio channels used for long-distance voice and video transmission by telephone companies in the 6 GHz band (Rummler 1979) c l τ =α[δ τ βe i2πf 0τ δ τ τ 0 ] where α: overall attenuation parameter β: shape parameter due to multipath components τ 0 : time delay f 0 : frequency of the fade minimum, i.e.,f 0 = argmin c l f fεr 40

signal characteristics(1) Usually, we prefer slowly fading and frequency non-selectivity. So we wish to choose symbol time T and transmission bandwidth B such that T < ( t) c and B< ( f) c Hence, using BT = 1, we wish T B = B ( f) d T m < 1. c ( t) c The term B d T m is an essential channel parameter and is called spread factor. 43

Slowly fading channel(1) For a frequency-nonslective, slowly fading channel, i.e., the signal spectrum s l f hence, T m < 1 B = T < ( t) c is almost unchanged by C l (f; t); C l (f; t) C l (0; t) within the signal bandwidth and it is almost time-invariant; hence, C l (f; t) C l (0) within the signal bandwidth This gives r l t = c l (τ;t) s l t + z(t) = Cl (f; t) s l f e j2πft df + z(t) Cl (0) s l f e j2πft df + z(t) =C l (0)s l t + z(t) 46

Slowly fading channel(2) Assume that the phase of C l 0 = αe jφ can be perfectly estimated and compensated. The channel model becomes: r l t = αs l t + z(t). After demodulation, we obtain r l = αs l + n l. Question: What will the error probability be under random α? 47

Case 3 & 4: BDPSK & Noncoherent BFSK (2) 52

BPSK is 3dB better than BDPSK/BFSK; 6dB better than noncoherent BFSK. P e decreases inversely proportional with SNR under fading P e decreases exponentially with SNR when no fading. Comparison 53

To achieve P e =10 4, the system must provide an SNR higher than 35dB, which is not practically possible! So alternative solution should be used to compensate the fading such as the diversity technique. Comparison (2) 54

Diversity techniques(1) Solutions to compensate deep fading Frequency diversity Separation of carriers ( f )c = 1/Tm to obtain uncorrelation in signal replicas. Time diversity Separation of time slots ( t) c = 1/B d to obtain uncorrelation in signal replicas. Space diversity (Multiple receiver antennas) Spaced sufficiently far apart to ensure received signals faded independently (usually, > 10 wavelengths) RAKE correlator or RAKE matched filter (Price and Green 1958) It is named wideband approach, since it is usually applied to situation where signal bandwidth is much greater than the coherent bandwidth ( f )c. 60

Diversity techniques(2) It is clear for the first three diversities, we will have identical replicas at the Rx. The idea is that as long as not all of them are deep-faded, the demodulation is ok. For the last one (i.e., RAKE), where B ( f )c, which results in a frequency selective channel, we have = B ( f )c 61

Zero-mean additive white Gaussian background noise. 4. Assume the phase-shift can be perfectly compensated. 5. Assume the attenuation {α k } k=1 can be perfectly estimated at Rx. Hence, α k = α k s + n k k = 1,2,, How to combine these outputs when making decision? Maximal ratio combiner (Brennan 1959) r = k=1 α k r k = k=1 α k α k s + k=1 α k n k 62

Orthogonal signals(1) Here, the derivation assumes that both passband and lowpass equivalent signals are orthogonal; hence, the frequency separation is 1/T rather than 1/(2T ). Based on lowpass (baseband) orthogonality, -diversity square-law combining gives M 1 ( 1) m+1 M 1 1 P e = 1! m (1 + m + mγ c ҧ ) m=1 where β k,m satisfies 1 U k k=0 k! m m( 1) k=0 = 1 + γ c ҧ β k,m 1 + k!

Orthogonal signals(2) M = 2 case: et ഥγ t = ഥγ c be the total system power. For fixed ഥγ t, there is an that minimizes P e. This hints that ഥγ c = 3 will give the best performance. 77

Orthogonal signals(3) M = 4 case: et ഥγ t = ഥγ c be the total system power. For fixed ഥγ t, there is an that minimizes P e. This hints that ഥγ c = 3 will give the best performance. 78

Tapped-delay line channel model (1) Assumption (Time-invariant channel) c l τ ; t = c l τ Assumption (Bandlimited signal) s l t is band-limited, i.e., s l f = 0 for f > W /2 In such case, we shall add a lowpass filter at the Rx. 1 f W/2 where f = ቊ 0 otherwise 81

Tapped-delay line channel model (5) Statistically, c l τ = 0for τ > T m and τ < 0 with probability one. So, c l τ is assumed band-limited and is also statistically time-limited! Hence, c n t = 0 for n < 0 and n > T m W (since τ = n/w > T m ). T r l t = σ m W n= cn (t). s l (t n ) + z W W(t) For convenience, the text re-indexes the system as r l t = σ k=1 c k t. s l t k W +z W (t) 85

RAKE demodulator (1) Assumption (Gaussian and US (uncorrelated scattering)) {c k (t)} k=1 complex i.i.d. Gaussian and can be perfectly estimated by Rx. So the Rx can regard the transmitted signal as one of m = arg max 1 m M =arg max 1 m M Re r l. v m,l Re σ k=1 v 1,l t = c k t. s 1,l (t k W ) k=1 v M,l t = c k t. s M,l (t k W ) k=1 =arg max 1 m M Re 0 T rl T rl 0 t c k t s m,l (t k )dt W t v m,l dt 86

RAKE demodulator (1) Discussions on assumptions: We assume: s l (t) is band-limited to W. c l (τ) is causal and (statistically) time-limited to T M and, at the same time, band-limited to W. W ( f) c = 1 T m (i.e., WT m 1) as stated in page 879 in textbook. The definition of Um requires T T m (See page 871 in textbook) such that the longest delayed version s l (t /W)=s l (t WT m /W)=s l (t T m ) is still well-confined within the integration range [0,T ). As a result, the signal bandwidth is much larger than 1/T; RAKE is used in the demodulation of spread-spectrum signals! WT WT m 1 W 1/T 87

The receiver collects the signal energy from all received paths, which is somewhat analogous to the garden rake that is used to gather leaves, hays, etc. Consequently, the name RAKE receiver has been coined for this receiver structure by Price and Green (1958). (s m,l is used but the text uses s l,m.) M = 2 case 88

Alternative realization of RAKE receiver The previous structure requires M delay lines. We can reduce the number of the delay lines to one by the following derivation. et u=t-k/w U m,l = Re σ k=1 T rl 0 t c k (t)s m,l ((t k ))dt W = Re σ k=1 Re σ k=1 T K W r l u + k c W k (u + k ) s W m,l(u)du K W T rl 0 u + k c W k (u + k ) s W m,l(t)dt where the last approximation follows from K W W WT m W = T m T. 89

Optimum demodulator for wideband binary signals (delayed received signal configuration). RAKE is abbreviated as ck(t) in the above figure. 90

Performance of RAKE receiver Suppose c k t = c k and the signal corresponding to m = 1 is transmitted. Then, letting U m,l = 1 2ε s U m,l and sǁ m,l t k W = 1 2ε s s m,l t k W U m,l = Re න = Re න k=1 k=1 T 0 = Re k=1 n=1 T r l 0 ( n=1 c n c k න 0 +Re[σ k=1 c T k zw 0 t sǁ m,l t c k s m,l ((t k W ))dt (normalization), we have c n s 1,l t n W + z W(t)) c k sǁ m,l (t k W )dt T s 1,l t n W ǁ t k W s m,l dt] (t k W )dt 91

RAKE(2) The transmitted signal is orthogonal to the shifted counterparts of all signals, including itself. T z k = zw 0 t sǁ m,l because sǁ m,l t k W hence,with α k = c k U m,l = Re =σ k=1 k=1 t k W k=1 c k 2 න 0 dt complex Gaussian with E z k 2 = 2N 0 k=1 T orthonormal. s 1,l t k W sǁ m,l (t k W )dt + Re[ k=1 α 2 k Re s 1,l t k, s W m,l ((t k )) +σ W k=1 α k n k,l z k c k ] where n k,l = Re[e j c kz k ] k=1 i.i.d. Gaussian with E n 2 k,l = N 0 T Under T T m, 0 ( s1,l t k sǁ W m,l ((t k ))dt is almost independent of k; so, W s 1,l t k W, s m,l ((t k W )) s 1,l(t), s m,l (t). 92

RAKE(3) Therefore, the performance of RAKE is the same as the -diversity maximal ratio combiner if α k k=1 i.i.d. However, α k = c k k=1 may not be identically distributed. In such case, we can still obtain the pdf of γ b = σ k=1 γ k from characteristic function of γ k = Ψ k jυ = 1 1 jυγ k 1 characteristic function of γ b = γ k = Ψ k jυ = 1 jυγ k The pdf of γ is then given by the Fourier transform of characteristic function: f γ = σ k=1 Where π k = ς i=1,i k π k γ k e γ/γ k k=1 k=1 γ k γ k γ i, provided γ k ഥγ i for k i k=1 93

Usually it requires ( t) c. T Final notes > 100 in order to have an accurate estimate of {c n } n=1 Note that for DPSK and FSK with square-law combiner, it is unnecessary to estimate {c n } n=1. So, they have no further performance loss (due to an inaccurate estimate of {c n } n=1 ).
