Joy Karan Singh, Jyoteesh Malhotra . Simulative Investigation of Flat Fading Wireless Channels in terms of First Order and Second Order Statistics. International Journal of Computer Applications. 118, 9 ( May 2015), 6-10. DOI=10.5120/20771-3237
Second order statistics provides an efficient representation of a fading channel and plays a major role in the designing and evaluation of the wireless communication systems. This paper presents a channel model framework for the implementation of important second order statistical parameters, in particular the Level Crossing Rate (LCR) and the Average Fade Duration (AFD). In addition to this, other key first order statistics including Doppler Shift, CDF PDF, BER are also analysed. It also analyses the variations of LCR and AFD in multiple scattering environment . The analysis references to the well known Clarkes Model which has been utilised to plot the variations in key parameters.
