Doppler Power Spectrum Density

Started by najmy April 12, 2009
Dear all,
I am trying to generate a noise channel for a synchronous downlink MC-CDMA through a zero-mean complex Gaussian process through a designed filter whose power spectrum density (PSD) is shaped as classic Doppler PSD.
The symbol rate, Rs, which is the chip rate over N subcarriers is set to 3.84Mchip/s. I have considered a normalized Doppler frequency of fdT = 0.001 where T is the duration of a symbol, which is the inverse of Rs. The system operates a carrier frequency of fc = 2 GHz and vehicle speeds were simulated with a maximum Doppler frequency of fd,max| = 120 Hz, which corresponds to a nominal velocity of v = 65 kmph.
The problem is I am not sure on how to generate the noise model (Doppler PSD) using the Matlab code. Is it right for me to multiply the Doppler PSD with the AWGN in order to simulate a time-varying channel? Please somebody help me to clarify this matter and if possible give the right Matlab code or Doppler PSD algorithm.
Another thing, I need to know is there any correlation between Rayleigh (distribution) channel with the the Doppler PSD.
Thanks and regards.
