Abstract :
Channel parameters are obtained from a recent channel model which was developed from experimental factory data. The model shows that the average number of signals with relatively large amplitudes (not less than 10% of the largest signal present in the data) is three or less. Since most channel degradations result from large amplitude signals which cause severe fading, it is reasonable to find the fading statistics for channels with a few paths. In particular, the distribution of the power spectrum of the transfer function derived here can be used to design a reliable multiple-access communication system operating over such a multipath fading channel
