Abstract

To produce multiple uncorrelated Rayleigh fading waveforms is often required for simulating wideband fading channels, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels, and diversity-combined fading channels. In this paper, a new parameter computation method for deterministic sum-of-sinusoids (SoS) channel simulators is proposed to guarantee the uncorrelatedness between different simulated Rayleigh fading processes. Numerical and simulation results show that the resulting deterministic SoS channel simulator can accurately and efficiently reproduce all the desired statistical properties of the reference model
