Statistics of the multipath transfer function in medium bandwidth - Application to prediction of quality
Abstract
It is shown, from data gathered on three different test links, that multipath transfer functions on a medium bandwidth can be modelled with three parameters. Moreover, the model parameters follow similar probability laws on the three links, thus leading to a universal statistical model. This statistical model depends on two independent parameters. When the two statistical parameters are known, the outage time of the link can be deduced from the model. A first estimation of these parameters can be inferred from the distribution law of the levels at fixed-frequency. The application of the method to two particular cases is presented.
