Abstract :
To design efficient modulation and error control schemes for wireless local area networks, characterisation of signal fading is required. In this paper, we present fading measurements gathered for the indoor propagation channel at 2.4 GHz. A statistical analysis of the measurements was undertaken and the obtained fading distributions, level crossing rates, and average duration of fades are presented and discussed
