On the Correlation and Ergodic Properties of the Squared Envelope of SOC Rayleigh Fading Channel Simulators
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: Wireless Personal Communications. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11277-011-0493-2 In this paper, we investigate the correlation and ergodic properties of the squared envelope of a class of autocorrelation-ergodic (AE) sum-of-cisoids (SOC) simulation models for mobile Rayleigh fading channels. Novel closed-form expressions are presented for both the ensemble and the time autocorrelation functions (ACFs) of the SOC simulation model’s squared envelope. These expressions have been derived by assuming that the SOC model’s inphase and quadrature (IQ) components have arbitrary autocorrelation and cross-correlation pr…

On the performance of hybrid-ARQ with code combining over double rayleigh fading channels
2011
In this paper, we study the performance of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) with code combining (CC) over double Rayleigh channels. This channel can be utilized to model the fading envelope of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) channels. We derive analytical solutions for the characteristic quantities of double Rayleigh channels, such as the outage probability, the ergodic capacity, and the bit error probability (BEP). Moreover, we study the performance of HARQ with CC. Our analysis focuses on information theoretic aspects of HARQ with CC. closed-form analytical approximations are derived for the e-outage capacity, the average number of transmissions, and the average transmission rate of HARQ w…
Performance Analysis of M-Ary PSK Modulation Schemes over Multiple Double Rayleigh Fading Channels with EGC in Cooperative Networks
2010
This article studies the performance of M-ary phase shift keying (PSK) modulation schemes over mobile-to-mobile (M2M) fading channels with equal gain combining (EGC) in cooperative networks. The frequency-nonselective M2M fading channels are modeled assuming non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation conditions. Furthermore, a dual-hop amplify-and-forward relay type cooperative network is taken into consideration here. It is assumed that K diversity branches are present between the source mobile station and the destination mobile station via K mobile relays. The performance of M-ary PSK modulation schemes is analyzed by evaluating the average bit error probability (BEP). We have derived a simple …
Performance analysis of binary DPSK modulation schemes over Hoyt fading channels
2009
This paper presents a performance analysis of differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulation schemes over Hoyt fading channels. Based upon the theory of DPSK modulation and a recently derived formula for the probability density function (PDF) of the differential phase between two Hoyt vectors contaminated by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), the bit error probability (BEP) for DPSK systems with noncoherent demodulation over Hoyt channels is analyzed. In the analysis, the correlation between adjacent bits is taken into account. The obtained theoretical results are fully validated first by reducing them to the corresponding known solutions for the Rayleigh fading distribution being a s…
A study on the statistical properties of double hoyt fading channels
2009
This paper deals with a study on the statistical properties of narrowband amplify-and-forward relay fading channels for Hoyt multipath propagation environments. We consider the basic radio link topology, where only one fixed relay station is used for the amplification. In this case, the envelope of the signal received over the overall multipath channel is modeled by the so-called double Hoyt fading process. Considering this multipath propagation channel model, analytical expressions for the first and second order statistics are provided. Specifically, the mean value, variance, probability density function (PDF), level-crossing rate (LCR), and average duration of fades (ADF) of double Hoyt p…
The design of sum-of-cisoids rayleigh fading channel simulators assuming non-isotropic scattering conditions
2010
In this letter, we introduce the Riemann sum method (RSM) as an effective tool for the design of sum-of-cisoids (SOC) simulators for narrowband mobile Rayleigh fading channels under non-isotropic scattering conditions. We compare the performance of the RSM with that of the generalized method of equal areas (GMEA) and the Lp-norm method (LPNM), which were until now the only methods available for the design of SOC simulators for non-isotropic scattering channels. The obtained results indicate that the RSM is better suited than the GMEA and the LPNM to emulate the channel's autocorrelation function (ACF), whereas the latter two methods are more precise regarding the approximation of the envelo…
An Exact Solution for the Level-Crossing Rate and the Average Duration of Fades of the Envelope of Sum-of-Cisoids Processes
2012
Authors version of an article published in the journal: Procedia Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.protcy.2012.03.004 Sum-of-cisoids (SOC) processes provide a physically and numerically appealing framework for the modelling and simulation of a wide class of mobile radio channels. This paper is concerned with the problem of finding a general solution for the level-crossing rate (LCR) and the average duration of fades (ADF) of the envelope of SOC processes. Exact expressions are derived for the LCR and the ADF by taking into account that the inphase component, the quadrature component, and the time derivatives of the inphase and quadrature component…
On the autocorrelation function of Rice processes for unsymmetrical doppler power spectral densities
2010
In this paper, we derive an analytical expression for the ACF of Rice processes in the general case of unsymmetrical Doppler power spectral densities. This expression, which is obtained based on the multidimensional Gaussian distribution approach, is shown to cover the ACF of Rayleigh processes as a special case. Various numerical examples are presented to illustrate the impact of the channel parameters on the ACF. Computer simulations, considering the von Mises distribution for the angle of arrivals, are also performed to check the validity of the analytical result. Finally, the analysis of the covariance spectrum is addressed.
