Abstract

A class of aeronautical wideband channel models is proposed, featuring parking and taxi environments, take-off and landing situations, and en-route scenarios for air-ground links and air-air links. Typical and worst-case parameter sets are suggested, based on published measurement results. The models are suitable for an implementation of simple channel emulators on digital computers or in hardware, and thus may be useful for the validation of future VHF digital aeronautical links (VDL)
