Time evolution of Rayleigh fading

Rayleigh–Fading should be used when

  • there is no direct connection between sender and receiver, and
  • the signal reaches the receiver in many ways, but their transit times are approximately the same.


An example of such a Rayleigh–channel occurs in urban mobile communications when narrowband signals are used with ranges between  $50$  and  $100$  meters.

Looking at the radio signals  $s(t)$  and  $r(t)$  in the equivalent low-pass range $($that is, around the frequency  $f = 0)$, the signal transmission is given by the equation

$$r(t)= z(t) \cdot s(t)$ described completely. The multiplicative falsification :$$z(t)= x(t) + {\rm j} \cdot y(t)$$ is always complex and has the following characteristics: * The real part  $x(t)$  and the imaginary part  $y(t)$  are Gaussian mean-free random variables, both with equal variance  $\sigma^2$. Within the components  $x(t)$  and  $y(t)$  there may be statistical bindings, but this is not relevant for the solution of the present task. There are no bonds between  $x(t)$  and  $y(t)$; their cross-correlation function is identical to zero. * The amount  $a(t) = |z(t)|$  has a Rayleigh–WDF, from which the name „<i>Rayleigh–Fading</i>” is derived: :$$f_a(a) =

\left\{ \begin{array}{c} a/\sigma^2 \cdot {\rm e}^ { -a^2/(2\sigma^2)} \\\ 0 \end{array} \right.\quad \begin{array}{*{*{1}c} {\rm f\ddot{u}r}\hspace{0.15cm} a \ge 0 \\ {\rm f\ddot{u}r}\hspace{0.15cm} a < 0 \\\ \\ \end{array}

\hspace{0.05cm}.$$

* The absolute square  $p(t) = a(t)^2 = |z(t)|^2$  is exponentially distributed according to the equation
$$f_p(p) = \left\{ \begin{array}{c} 1/(2\sigma^2) \cdot {\rm e}^ { -p/(2\sigma^2)} \\
0 \end{array} \right.\quad

\begin{array}{*{*{1}c} {\rm f\ddot{u}r}\hspace{0.15cm} p \ge 0 \\ {\rm f\ddot{u}r}\hspace{0.15cm} p < 0 \\\ \\ \end{array}

\hspace{0.05cm}.$$

Measurements have shown that the time intervals with  $a(t) ≤ 1$  (highlighted in yellow in the graphic) add up to  $\text{59 ms}$  (areas highlighted in red). With the total measurement time of  $\text{150 ms}$  the probability that the amount of the <i>Rayleigh–fading</i> is less than or equal to  $1$  results in
$${\rm Pr}(a(t) \le 1) = \frac{59\,\,{\,{\rm ms}}}{150\,\,{\rm ms}} = 39.4 \%
\hspace{0.05cm}.$$

In the lower graphic the value range between  $\text{-3 dB}$  and  $\text{+3 dB}$  regarding the logarithmic Rayleigh–Size  $20 \cdot {\rm lg} is highlighted in green. \ a(t)$. The subtask '''(4)'' refers to this.


''Notes:'' 
* The task belongs to chapter  [[Mobile_Communications/Probability Density_of_Rayleigh%E2%80%93Fadings|Probability Density of Rayleigh–Fadings]]  of this book. 
* A similar topic is treated with a different approach in chapter  [[Stochastic_Signal Theory/Weitere_Verteilungen|Weitere Verteilungen]]  of the book „Stochastic Signal Theory”.
