A Novel Simulator of Nonstationary Random MIMO Channels in Rayleigh Fading Scenarios

الملخص EN

For simulations of nonstationary multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Rayleigh fading channels in time-variant scattering environments, a novel channel simulator is proposed based on the superposition of chirp signals.

This new method has the advantages of low complexity and implementation simplicity as the sum of sinusoids (SOS) method.

In order to reproduce realistic time varying statistics for dynamic channels, an efficient parameter computation method is also proposed for updating the frequency parameters of employed chirp signals.

Simulation results indicate that the proposed simulator is effective in generating nonstationary MIMO channels with close approximation of the time-variant statistical characteristics in accordance with the expected theoretical counterparts.
