Propagation Prediction Models for Wireless Communication Systems

نویسنده

  • Magdy F. Iskander
چکیده

A comprehensive review of the propagation prediction models for terrestrial wireless communication systems is presented in this paper. The classic empirical models are briefly described and the focus is placed on the application of ray-tracing techniques to the development of deterministic propagation models. Schemes to increase the computational efficiency and accuracy are discussed. Traditional statistical models are also briefly reviewed for completeness. New challenges to the propagation prediction are described and some new approaches for meeting these challenges are presented.

Channel Characterization and Propagation Models for Wireless Communication Systems

A wide variety of radio propagation models for different wireless services that specifically address varying propagation environments and operating frequency bands are generally known (Pahlavan et al. 1995; Jakes 1974). A large number of propagation prediction models have been developed for various terrain irregularities, tunnels, urban streets and buildings, earth curvature, etc. (E. Vehicular...

Secure Communication in Shotgun Cellular Systems

In this paper, we analyze the secure connectivity in Shotgun cellular systems (SCS: Wireless communication systems with randomly placed base stations) by Poisson intrinsically secure communication graph (IS-graph), i.e., a random graph which describes the connections that are secure over a network. For a base-station in SCS, a degree of secure connections is determined over two channel models: ...
