Transmitting and receiving antennas must be within line of sight Satellite communication – signal above 30 MHz not
reflected by ionosphere
Ground communication – antennas within effective line of site due to refraction
Refraction – bending of microwaves by the atmosphere Velocity of electromagnetic wave is a function of the
density of the medium
When wave changes medium, speed changes
Wave bends at the boundary between mediums

Strength of signal falls off with distance over transmission medium
Attenuation factors for unguided media:
Received signal must have sufficient strength so that circuitry in the receiver can interpret the signal
Signal must maintain a level sufficiently higher than noise to be received without error
Attenuation is greater at higher frequencies, causing distortion

If a radio channel’s propagating characteristics are not specified, one usually infers that the signal attenuation versus distance behaves as if propagation takes place over ideal free space. The model of free space treats the region between the transmit and receive antennas as being free of all objects that might absorb or reflect radio frequency (RF) energy. It also assumes that, within this region, the atmosphere behaves as a perfectly uniform and nonabsorbing medium.
Sklar P946
![Page 38: YU Xiangyu - scut.edu.cn · VHF-/UHF-ranges for mobile radio simple, small antenna for cars deterministic propagation characteristics, reliable connections SHF and higher for directed](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042123/5e9e4e6c0904e34ebf05d909/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Furthermore, the earth is treated as being infinitely far away from the propagating signal (or, equivalently, as having a reflection coefficient that is negligible). Basically, in this idealized free-space model, the attenuation of RF energy between the transmitter and receiver behaves according to an inverse-square law. The received power expressed in terms of transmitted power is attenuated by a factor , where this factor is called path loss or free space loss.

When the receiving antenna is isotropic, this factor is expressed as
where d is the distance between the transmitter and the receiver, and is the wavelength of the propagating signal. For this case of idealized propagation, received signal power is very predictable. For most practical channels, where signal propagation takes place in the atmosphere and near the ground, the free-space propagation model is inadequate to describe the channel behavior and predict system performance.

Path Loss: The signal strength decays exponentially with distance d between transmitter and receiver;
The loss could be proportional to somewhere between d 2 and d 4 depending on the environment.
Definition of path loss LP :
Path Loss in Free-space:
where fc is the carrier frequency.
This shows greater the fc , more is the loss.

Intermodulation noise – occurs if signals with different frequencies share the same medium
Interference caused by a signal produced at a frequency that is the sum or difference of original frequencies
Crosstalk – unwanted coupling between signal paths
Impulse noise – irregular pulses or noise spikes
Short duration and of relatively high amplitude
Caused by external electromagnetic disturbances, or faults and flaws in the communications system

Ratio of signal energy per bit to noise power density per Hertz
The bit error rate for digital data is a function of Eb/N0 Given a value for Eb/N0 to achieve a desired error rate,
parameters of this formula can be selected
As bit rate R increases, transmitted signal power must increase to maintain required Eb/N0

Multiple copies of a signal may arrive at different phases If phases add destructively, the signal level
relative to noise declines, making detection more difficult
Intersymbol interference (ISI) One or more delayed copies of a pulse may arrive
at the same time as the primary pulse for a subsequent bit

Reflection - occurs when signal encounters a surface that is large relative to the wavelength of the signal
Diffraction - occurs at the edge of an impenetrable body that is large compared to wavelength of radio wave
Scattering – occurs when incoming signal hits an object whose size in the order of the wavelength of the signal or less

Reflection Propagation wave impinges on an object which is large as compared
to wavelength
- e.g., the surface of the Earth, buildings, walls, etc.
Diffraction Radio path between transmitter and receiver obstructed by surface
with sharp irregular edges
Waves bend around the obstacle, even when LOS (line of sight) does not exist
Scattering Objects smaller than the wavelength of the
propagation wave
- e.g. foliage, street signs, lamp posts

Slow fading is caused by movement over distances large enough to produce gross variations in the overall path between transmitter and receiver.
The long-term variation in the mean level is known as slow fading (shadowing or log-normal fading). This fading caused by shadowing.

Shadowing: Often there are millions of tiny obstructions in the channel, such as water droplets if it is raining or the individual leaves of trees. Because it is too cumbersome to take into account all the obstructions in the channel, these effects are typically lumped together into a random power loss.

Doppler Effect: When a wave source and a receiver are moving towards each other, the frequency of the received signal will not be the same as the source. When they are moving toward each other, the frequency of the received signal
is higher than the source.
When they are opposing each other, the frequency decreases.
Thus, the frequency of the received signal is
where fC is the frequency of source carrier,
fD is the Doppler frequency.
Doppler Shift in frequency:
where v is the moving speed,
is the wavelength of carrier.

When a signal propagates from a transmitter to a receiver, signal suffers one or more reflections.
This forces signal to follow different paths. Each path has different path length, so the
time of arrival for each path is different. This effect which spreads out the signal is
called “Delay Spread”.

Coherence bandwidth Bc:
Represents correlation between two fading signal envelopes at frequencies f1 and f2.
Is a function of delay spread.
Two frequencies that are larger than coherence bandwidth fade independently.

Transmitter adds error-correcting code to data block
Code is a function of the data bits
Receiver calculates error-correcting code from incoming data bits
If calculated code matches incoming code, no error occurred
If error-correcting codes don’t match, receiver attempts to determine bits in error and correct
