Abstract :
Indoor and outdoor field trial measurements are used to validate the autocorrelation function derived in an exact manner for the α-μ fading signal. In addition, accurate closedform approximations for both autocorrelation function and to the power spectrum of the α-μ envelope are obtained and also validated. Comparisons are performed and an excellent fit to the field measurements is found in both isotropic and anisotropic environments.
