Abstract

Vector autoregressive stochastic models are proposed for the synthesis of multiple Rayleigh fading processes with specified autocorrelation and cross-correlation functions. This capability is desirable, for example, to permit realistic performance assessments of space-time modem designs by enabling the simulation of space-time-selective mobile radio channel models. The utility of the simulation approach is demonstrated by the accurate generation of some bandlimited vector Rayleigh processes
