Abstract :
Results of narrow-band field trials of fade durations are presented. The measurements are carried out in a suburban environment at 1.8 GHz. Empirical data are compared to Nakagami average fade duration and Rice distribution of the duration of fades. Also, a family of curves representing the number of fades per second exceeding a given fade duration is presented.
