Popis: This paper considers the propagation model in which the amplitude of the direct wave is kept constant and that of the indirect wave exhibits Rayleigh fluctuations in the line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight channels. The instantaneous received signal level distribution is examined by computer simulation and a fading simululator, with the equivalent received bandwidth (product of received bandwidth 2Δf and maximum path length difference ΔLmax) as the propagation parameter. It is seen that the equivalent received bandwidth is suited as a parameter to represent the instantaneous received signal level distribution. The instantaneous received signal level distributions derived by the computer simulation and the fading simulator agree well. Conventional narrow-band transmission corresponds to the case in which 2ΔfΔLmax is less than 10 MHz-m. Then, the fading depth is determined by the power ratio a between the direct wave and the indirect wave. Wide-band transmission corresponds to the case in which 2ΔfΔLmax is larger than 10-MHz-m. Then, the fading depth is determined by a and 2ΔfΔLmax, becoming less when those quantities are increased. When 2ΔfΔLmax is very large, the fading depth also depends on the number of arriving waves. These properties are derived theoretically and are verified by the simulation and the fading simulator. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
