EE359 - Lecture 3 Outline

This document outlines topics from EE359 Lecture 3 including log normal shadowing, combined path loss and shadowing models, outage probability, and how model parameters are estimated from measurements. Statistical multipath modeling is also introduced which models the time-varying channel impulse response due to multiple random multipath components.

Shadowing

Xc
 Models attenuation from obstructions
 Random due to random # and type of obstructions
 Typically follows a log-normal distribution
 dB value of power is normally distributed
 m=0 (mean captured in path loss), 4<s<12 (empirical)
 CLT used to explain this model
 Decorrelates over decorrelation distance Xc

 Exponent is MMSE estimate based on data
 Captures mean due to shadowing

 Shadowing variance
Statistical Multipath Model

 Random # of multipath components, each with


 Random amplitude
 Random phase
 Random Doppler shift
 Random delay
 Random components change with time
 Leads to time-varying channel impulse response
Main Points
 Random attenuation due to shadowing modeled as
log-normal (empirical parameters)

 Shadowing decorrelates over decorrelation distance

 Combined path loss and shadowing leads to outage


and non-circular coverage areas for WiFi/cellular
 Path loss and shadowing parameters obtained from
empirical measurements through a least-squares fit
 Matches environment in which measurements are taken.
 Can do a 1D fit with K fixed or a 2D fit over K and g.
