Abstract

A statistical wideband land mobile channel model adapted for requirements of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) simulations is proposed. The model considers is flexible with respect to different limitations of the hardware and software simulation platforms. The channel incorporates a tap delay line model combining well-known statistical approaches with other empirical/experimental observations from physical-statistical studies. This solution allows flexibility in the evaluation of multipath and shadowing in GNSS receivers.
