Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to examine in some detail the problem of constructing models for the channels to be used for digital transmission. The emphasis here is on wireless channels. and special attention will be paid to modeling of fading. The impact of the model on the performance assessment of a coded transmission system is also discussed.
