Power spectral density increases with increase in levels of modulation. For high power spectral density
of transmitter higher levels of QAM modulation techniques are preferred.
CDF is used in cumulative frequency analysis, which is the analysis of the frequency of occurrence of
values of a phenomenon less than a reference value.
For a 2x2 system simulation results showed that with increasing CFO, the BER increases. MIMO- OFDM
is emerging as a promising solution for the V2V communication in severe multi-path condition and also in
high mobility condition.
CCDF computes the power complementary cumulative distribution (CCDF) function from a time domain
signal. The CCDF curve shows the amount of time a signal spends above the average power level of the
measured signal, or equivalently, the probability that the signal power will be above the average power
level.
For higher values of Eb /N0, the BER is decreasing in all the fading channels for different modulation.
At higher M-PSK schemes, more carrier power is needed to modulate the signal to have low BER,&
carrier must be increased. Nakagami fading performance is better in comparison with other fading
channels.
The BER of AWGN channel. is the best of all channels.as it has the lowest (BER) under QAM,16-QAM &
64-QAM.In Rayleigh fading channel, BER affected by noise under QAM, 16-QAM & 64-QAM
modulation Because Rician fading channel. has higher BER than AWGN channel and lower than Rayleigh
fading channel. BER of this ch.has not been much affected by noise under QAM, 16-QAM & 64-QAM
modulation.

Problem Definition
This topic gives an overview to statistical modeling of the wireless channel, beginning with the most
intuitive model of the time-varying channel, followed by the first and second order statistical parameters,
which characterizes real-life channels. A an approach to demonstrate flat fading in communication systems
is to be presented here, wherein the basic concepts are reinforced by means of a series of Matlab
simulations

Fluctuations of received signal strength over short time intervals and interference from multiple copies
of Tx signal arriving at Rx at slightly different times. The important effects are.
Due smearing of the signal and interference between bits that are received, because of spreading of
signals in time domain.
Reflections from ground & surrounding buildings (clutter) as well as scattered signals from trees, people,
towers, etc.
Even stationary Tx/Rx wireless links can experience fading due to the motion of objects (cars, people,
trees, etc.) in surrounding environment off of which come the reflections.
Multipath signals have randomly distributed amplitudes, phases, & direction of arrival.

Fading:
1.Deviation of the attenuation affecting a signal over
certain propagation media.
2.Varies with time, geographical position or radio
frequency, and is often modelled as a random process
3. due to multipath propagation referred to as multipath
induced fading, or due to shadowing from obstacles
affecting the wave propagation sometimes referred to as
shadow fading.

Depending on the relation between signal parameters (bandwidth and symbol period) and channel
parameters (delay spread and Doppler spread) different signals undergo different types of fading\
10/5/16
22
Flat fading
Occurs when the amplitude of the received signal changes with time
Occurs when symbol period of the transmitted signal is much larger than the Delay Spread of the channel
Bandwidth of the applied signal is narrow.
The channel has a flat transfer function with almost linear phase, thus affecting all spectral components of
the signal in the same way may cause deep fades.
Increase the transmit power to combat this situation.

A channel that is not a flat fading channel is called frequency selective fading because different
frequencies within a signal are attenuated differently by the MRC.
Occurs when channel multipath delay spread is greater than the symbol period.
Bandwidth of the signal s(t) is wider than the channel impulse response.

Fast Fading
Rate of change of the channel characteristics is larger than the rate of change of the transmitted signal
The channel changes during a symbol period.
The channel changes because of receiver motion.
Coherence time of the channel is smaller than the symbol period of the transmitter signal
Occurs when:
BS < BD
and

AWGN is the commonly used to transmit signal while signals travel from the channel and simulate
background noise of channel
The transmitted signal gets disturbed by a simple additive white Gaussian noise process.
10/5/16
34
Thermal noise is described by a zero-mean Gaussian random process, n(t) that ADDS on to the signal =>
additive.
Its PSD is flat, hence, it is called white noise. Autocorrelation is a spike at 0: uncorrelated at any non-zero
lag.

A statistical power calculation method and can only be performed on time-domain data.
The CCDF deals with digitally modulated signals in spread-spectrum systems such as CDMA One,
cdma2000, and W-CDMA.Because these types of signals are noise-like, CCDF curves provide a useful
characterization of the signal power peaks. CCDF shows the amount of time the signal spends above any
given power level.
Fully characterize the power statistics of a digitally modulated signal. determine the impact of filtering on a
signal.
We can expect to see correlation studies between CCDF curve degradation and digital radio system
parameters such as BER, FER, CDP, and ACPR.

It is defined as the probability that a random variable X with a given probability distribution
f(x) will be found at a value less than x. The cumulative distribution function is a cumulative
sum of the probabilities up to a given point.
In the design of compliant Time Hopping Impulse radio (TH-IR) Ultra-Wide Band (UWB)
systems, the PSD is enhanced by suppressing the spectral lines. Which is achieved using the
diminishing the spectral lines through increasing the randomness of the transmitted signal in
order to smooth somehow its spectrum and to reduce the interference problem on the users of
other applications.

Conclusion
For a 2x2 system simulation results showed that with increasing CFO, the BER increases.
It can be concluded that in MIMO systems, more the number of receive antennas, lesser is the BER due to
space diversity.
For higher values of Eb / N0, the BER is decreasing in all the fading channels for different modulation
schemes.
With the change in m values at the high SNR level the system performance improves dramatically with
respect to that of in low SNR level.
PDF of a continuous random variable, whose integral across an interval gives the probability that the value
of the variable lies within the same interval.
PSD is computed from the FFT spectrum of a signal. PSD is better for higher levels of QAM modulation
techniques.
The probability of outage increases as the mobile velocity, or resulting Doppler shift,
increases
