Abstract

We propose an alternative distribution for modelling fading-shadowing wireless channels. This distribution presents certain advantages over the Rayleigh-lognormal distribution and the K distribution and has proved useful in the setting described. We obtain closed-form expressions for the average channel capacity and for the average bit error rate of differential phase-shift keying and of minimum shift keying when the new distribution is used. This distribution can be obtained exactly as the sum of mutual independent Gaussian stochastic processes, because it must represent the simulation of the fading channel; that is, it simulates the signal envelope. Finally, we describe practical applications of this distribution, comparing it with the Rayleigh-lognormal and K distributions.
