Abstract:

A finitestate Markov channel model representing Rayleigh fading channels was introduced. A methodology of selecting signaltonoise thresholds and the total number of states were discussed based on the analysis of the steadystate probability. And the transition probabilities between states and error probabilities were calculated with the given fading characteristic parameters such as level crossing rate. The validity and accuracy of the model are confirmed by the simulation.

Key words: Rayleigh fading, Markov model, signalnoise ratio threshold, transition probability, error probability
