Summary
Z. Ghassemlooy
Fading
Is due to multipath propagation.
Caused by shadowing:
when the propagation environment is changing
significantly, but this fading is typically much slower than
the multipath fading.

Ricean Fading
If there is one direct component in addition to scattered
components, the envelope received multipath is Ricean,
where the impulse response has a non zero mean.
Ricean distribution = Rayleigh signal + direct line of sight
signal. The distribution is:

Coherence Distance
Coherence distance is the minimum distance
between points in space for which the signals are
mostly uncorrelated.
This distance is usually grater than 0.5
wavelengths, depending on antenna beamwidth
and angle of arrival distribution.
At the BTS, it is common practice to use spacing
of about 10 and 20 wavelengths for low-medium
and high antenna heights, respectively (120 o
sector antennas).

where
avg = j Pj j ,
j is the delay of the j th delay component of the profile
Pj = (power in the j th delay component) / (total power in all components
Delay spread varies with the terrain with typical values for rural, urban and
suburban areas:
0.2s rural

Frequency diversity
Signals at different frequencies received by the same antenna
very rarely fade simultaneously. Thus the use of several carrier
frequencies or the use of a wideband signal to combat fading.
A single aerial connected to a number receiver, each tuned to a
different frequency, whose outputs are connected in parallel.
The receiver with the strongest instantaneous signal will provide
the output.
Disadvantage: Uses two or more frequencies to transmit
the same signal.
