Descripción
The accurate simulation of multipath fading channels is a crucial issue in the development and evaluation of modern wireless communication networks. Since the received signal depends on many fast changing factors, statistical models are typically used to simulate fading. Many fading models have been developed over the last four decades, making use of several statistical distributions (Rice, Rayleigh, Nakagami-m, etc.) and with different degrees of complexity. In this chapter, we describe some of the most important statistical models developed for the simulation of wireless fading channels, paying special attention to the accuracy-complexity trade-off and discussing the application domain where each of them is more appropriate. Indeed, the main purpose of this chapter is providing clear algorithms for the efficient simulation of each of the channels described (which are often hard to find in the literature), rather than focusing only on the theoretical aspects (which are also covered). In order to achieve this purpose, several case studies are introduced throughout the chapter, showing how to simulate real-world channels (at different degrees of detail and complexity) for practical applications.
