Abstract:
Temporal behavior of a wireless scattered channel characterizes the response associated with timed behavior of the scattered components of a signal. One of the important features of the temporal characteristic is the propagation path delay (PPD). By using the directional antenna at Base Station (BS), a special case of 3D semi-ellipsoid—the illuminated scattered regions, is taken into consideration. By varying the azimuth and elevation angles, the PPD characteristics are changed. These characteristics can be further changed by varying the distance d between BS and Mobile Station (MS) and by varying the height of BS with respect to the axis of semi-ellipsoid covering the surrounding area of the MS. It is observed that certain values of these parameters can help in mitigating Inter-symbol Interference (ISI) effect, by about 7%. The ISI can also be affected by taking the special cases of dimensions a and b of the ellipsoid. These variations in characteristics of the PPD are useful in design perspectives of a communication system.
