Abstract

A new satellite channel model with the exploitation of Nakagami-q and lognormal distribution is proposed. The complex channel process is taken as addition of small-scale faded scattered components and shadow faded line-of-sight (LOS) component of received signal in a land mobile satellite (LMS) channel. Analytical expressions for probability density function (pdf) and level crossing rate (LCR) are derived for the proposed model. Effect of different statistical parameters is reported with the results obtained from derived analytical formula. The results are also compared with the same obtained from other related channel models.
