Hi I'm getting into radio channel simulations and I've come across the following r = t * c + n r (received) t (transmitted) c fading n (noise) where, books say, c is a complex gaussian variable with mean 0 and variance 0.5 per real dimension. My question is, given that c is complex, what's the mean and variance of the imaginary dimension? Cheers Bruno |

how to make a "fading"?

I believe you are trying to synthesize Rayleigh fading (as opposed to Rician), since you are taking the mean value of the real part of the fading coefficient to be zero. This corresponds to a fading scenario where you do not have line of sight (LOS) and all you receive is the reflections from the environment. In a rayleigh fading scenario, the complex multiplicative coeficient is referred to as: c(t) = c_r(t) + j.c_i(t), where j=sqrt(-1). c_r(t) and c_i(t) are real valued random processes, with zero mean, and 0.5 variance. To achieve this you need to produce two independenty generated zero mean, unity variance random processes, scale them by 1/sqrt(2), then combine them as written above to achieve c(t). The magnitude of random process c(t), which is equal to sqrt(c_r (t).^2 + c_i(t).^2) is rayleigh distributed. If you need a rician fading, you should simply have non-zero mean.

Hi, Assuming that the signal 't' is real (for BPSK modulation), r = t * c + n where 'c' is complex gaussian variable with mean 0 and var 0.5 per real dimension. 'c' can be written as |c| (magnitude which is rayleigh random variable) and angle(c) (this is uniformly distributed r.v.) c can also be represented as x + j*y, x = N(0,0.5) and y = N(0,0.5) where N(a,b) is gaussian r.v. with mean a and variance b. hope this helps. if u have further doubts, you can check out my homepage (in my signature below). i have put up some reports on rayleigh fading, rician fading, etc ... logesh.

Hi, Thanks iceman and Logeshwaran. did not have problems thanks to your indication - now I'm trying to have parallel channels and i want to know if it possible to choose the correlation between them. I mean, something like function[ch1fading, ch2fading] = makefading(correlation_index) or I have generate one and repeat the generation of the second until I obtain the desired correlation Cheers!! bruno --- In matlab@y..., Logeshwaran Vijayan <logesh@i...> wrote: > Hi, > > Assuming that the signal 't' is real (for BPSK modulation), > > r = t * c + n > > where 'c' is complex gaussian variable with mean 0 and var 0.5 per real > dimension. > > 'c' can be written as |c| (magnitude which is rayleigh random variable) > and angle(c) (this is uniformly distributed r.v.) > > c can also be represented as x + j*y, x = N(0,0.5) and y = N(0,0.5) > where N(a,b) is gaussian r.v. with mean a and variance b. > > hope this helps. if u have further doubts, you can check out my homepage > (in my signature below). i have put up some reports on rayleigh fading, > rician fading, etc ... > > logesh. > > On Fri, 9 Aug 2002, brunomaggi2002 wrote: > > > Hi > > I'm getting into radio channel simulations and I've come across the > > following > > r = t * c + n > > r (received) > > t (transmitted) > > c fading > > n (noise) > > where, books say, c is a complex gaussian variable with mean 0 and > > variance 0.5 per real dimension.
