Objectives
- Defining basic concepts of propagation channel modelling
- Studying main channel models
- Determining relevant parameters
- Classifying channels
- Understanding the main disturbances due to the channel
- Investigating different solutions to overcome these disturbances, in particular diversity techniques, mainly spatial diversity approaches (MIMO).
Description
I. Introduction
II. Large-scale fading (path loss/shadowing)
III. Frequency-flat channels
IV. Frequency-selective channels
V. Parameters and channel characteristics
