The Wireless Channel 10 2: The Wireless Channel Fundamentals of Wireless Communication, Tse&Viswanath Wireless Mulipath Channel Channel varies at two spatial scales: large scale fading small scale fading 11 2: The Wireless Channel Fundamentals of Wireless Communication, Tse&Viswanath Large-scale fading • In free space, received power attenuates like 1/r 2 . • With reflections and obstructions, can attenuate even more rapidly with distance. Detailed modelling complicated. • Time constants associated with variations are very long as the mobile moves, many seconds or minutes. • More important for cell site planning, less for communication system design.
