Abstract :
The MLFMM method is applied to simulate wireless channels in two aeronautic environments: External propagation along a wing and internal propagation inside a cabin. Simplified models are proposed to represent complex scatterers such as seats. Time delay profiles and channel models are generated. The fading behaviour simulated inside the cabin is observed to faithfully follow the Nakagami distribution.
