WIRELESS CHANNEL ..........

Hello 

My name is Dania, I am new in WiMAX, I am trying to simulate wireless
channel for subscriber station (SS), I am using the formula received signal
power (RSP): 

Pr=Pt P0 xR(do/d)α
Or in dB

Pr(d)[dB] = Pt [dB]+P0 [dB] + 10 α log(d0 /d )+X[dB]  + R[dB]

 
Where Pr(d)[dB] is the received power at SS,  Pt [dB] transmitted power
from BS, P0 [dB] pathloss at reference distance, α pathloss exponent, d
distance from BS to SS, d0 is the reference distance, X[dB] shadowing ,
R[dB] Rayleigh fading received signal envelope.
I have questions about shadowing:

1-	I generate random numbers for shadowing lognormal numbers with mean 0
and sigma, at each frame I generate the numbers, should these numbers be
correlated, I mean at frame 2 for instance, does it should be correlated to
the previous value at frame 1, or every frame value should be independent
on the pervious ones, even if the SS didn’t move much from its position.
2-	I have only one cell consists of many SS and one BS (base station),
does the value of shadowing of SS should be correlated to the shadowing
values of the neighbor SSs, and how to implement that?.

And other questions about Rayleigh fading:

1-	I generate Rayleigh distributed signal envelope values along each
frame, for instance I generate 10 vales at each frame for Rayleigh signal,
and then average all these values to take only one value for that frame and
use it in the above formula as  R , are my steps correct?
2-	In addition to the above formula, I compute the received signal power
between SSs, I assumed that the SS are moving or very very slow moving, and
I need to compute the Rayleigh signal between them, so, should I compute it
in the same way as the signal between BS and SS  ?????
Please answer me it’s so important.
I appreciate your help
My regards

Dania,
A few general tips that might help you:

1. Please use plain text for your messages. When you want to use
letters like alpha, you may use LaTeX notation such as \alpha or
just use the text representation "alpha". Both those work better
than using any special characters which can't be read by
text-based newsgroup readers.

2. Please have a look at Usenet posting guidelines such as:
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/primer/part1/
especially guidelines on repeat posting.

All your questions relate to what model to use for the lognormal
fading
and the Rayleigh fading. The general answer is, it depends. You need
to either
make assumptions or gather from the specifications data on various
traffic
models for WiMAX, specifically what speeds the SSs are moving at,
what
the relative distances are and what kind of fading models to use. I
would
recommend first reading a text on WiMax physical layer modeling which
should
help with many of your questions.
