Abstract
In a mobile radio environment, the received signal is made up of a number of scattered waves caused by reflection and diffraction of the transmitted signal by surrounding objects. The resultant scattered waves cause the well-known multipath fading phenomenon, such that the envelope, phase and frequency components of the received signal vary randomly. In general, the envelope of the received signal has a Rayleigh distribution when the receiver is moved locally around a small distance, and the phase is uniformly distributed from 0 to 2π. Also, a Doppler shift component is present when the receiver is in motion [1].
