1 Introduction
In system level simulation, the shadow fading is usually modeled by the log-normal random variable. When
dynamic simulation is considered for simulating the channel variation due to user mobility, the shadow fading
effect shall be updated from time to time. Due to the nature of the propagation environment, the shadow fading
for the same radio link at the nearby locations will not change very much. Therefore, certain correlation shall
be applied when simulating the shadow fading effect, and this kind of correlation is called auto-correlation for
shadow fading.
In addition, multiple radio links may be simulated for the same user in multi-cell environment. For the radio
links which has similar propagation path, the shadow fading experienced by each of them will not differ too
much. In order to proper model this effect, the cross-correlation model shall be considered when simulating the
shadow fading effect for multiple radio links. In the following text proposal, both the auto-correlation and
cross-correlation model for shadow fading will be introduced. Moreover, the corresponding simulation
methodology will also be performed.

where is the correlation coefficient and x is the distance between adjacent observation locations. dcor
is the de-correlation distance, which was suggested as 20m in vehicular test environment in [2].
The way to apply this model in system level simulation is briefly summarized as follows:
Consider the log-normal shadow fading model with zero mean and variance 2 in dB. If L1 is the
log-normal component at position P1 and L2 is the one for P2, which is x away from P1. Then L2
will be normally distributed in dB with mean (x)L1 and variance ( 1-[(x)]2 ) 2.

where r 12 = r 21 is the correlation coefficient of the shadow fading component among the
radio link to base station #1 and #2.
Since G is a symmetric and positive definite matrix, it can be decomposed into a lower and upper
triangular matrix by Cholesky decomposition technique. Therefore, G = C T C , where C is an
upper triangular matrix.
