Abstract
Mobile communication has become popular over the past couple of decades. The channel between the base station and the mobile device depends on the environment in which the mobile device is placed. The time of arrival statistics of the signal arriving from the base station to the mobile device depends on the channel. The time of arrival statistics is an important parameter as it assists in determining the maximum width of the pulse that should be transmitted over the channel. Geometrical channel model is one of the widely used channel modeling techniques for determining the time of arrival statistics of the signals. In this chapter, we approximate the Gaussian distribution of scatterers around the mobile device by concentric annular rings of uniformly distributed scatterers to evaluate the time of arrival statistics. We subsequently compare the statistics obtained by both the methods for validation of the results.
