Abstract :
An analysis of tone calibration techniques (TCTs) that examines the validity of the slow fading assumptions is presented. TCT systems previously proposed will produce an error floor, albeit a very low one. The requirements for the elimination of the error floor and the error floor produced in a typical TCT system are examined. Monte Carlo integration techniques are used to evaluate integrals containing the isotropic fading spectrum.<>
