For an indoor non-directed line of sight optical wireless communication (NLOS-OWC) system we investigate the optimized Lambertian order (OLO) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We firstly derive an expression for the OLO from a conventional Lambertian LED model. Then, we analyze the indoor multi-cell NLOS-OWC channel characteristics including the optical power distribution and the multipath time ...

in this paper, for the purpose of investigating horizontal sound propagation, based on the results obtained from practical measurements in the strait of hormoz and available data on sound speed variations at different depths, a comprehensive model for shallow water multipath underwater acoustic channel is presented. mathematical modeling of multipath effect is based on ray theory and the image ...

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the use of CDMA in mobile communications. Bit error rate is one of the most important parameters in the evaluation of CDMA systems. In this paper, we develop a technique to find an accurate approximation to the probability of bit error for asynchronous direct–sequence code division multiple–access (DS/CDMA) systems by modeling the multipl...

Artificial neural network (ANN) has application in communication engineering in diverse areas such as channel equalization, channel modeling, error control code because of its capability of nonlinear processing, adaptability, and parallel processing. On the other hand, wavelet transform (WT) with both the time and the frequency resolution provides the exact representation of signal in both doma...

Most analytical studies of the performance of space diversity systems on fading channels assume a very rich multipath environment. In certain wireless applications, however, the number of significant multipath components can be small. In this letter, we consider a multipath channel in which the signal propagates from the transmitter to the receiver via discrete paths which are uniformly distrib...

Line-of-sight (LOS) delay estimation in multipath scenarios is a central problem in global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Deterministic channel models can be used to describe the multipath environment, but this usually requires the estimation of several nuisance parameters. In order to avoid this effort, stochastic channel models can be used. In this case the multipath statistics have to ...

A common practice when analyzing systems using multiple antennas at both ends is to focus on the multipath properties and normalize the SNR out of the channel matrix. This paper studies the relationship between the signal strength and multipath richness using indoor measurements taken at the Brigham Young University campus. It is found that the SNR and the multipath richness can be strongly cor...
