Abstract
Shadowing and multipath fading are two measures that degrade communication signals during wireless propagation. Over the last decades, a classical way of characterising fading has been visible through exploitation of statistical distributions. More specifically, statistical models such as Rayleigh, Nagakami-m, Weibull and Nakagami-q (Hoyt) have been widely considered for modelling multipath fading in non-line-of-site (NLOS) wireless communication. Similarly, statistical models such as log-normal and gamma distributions have been considered for the modelling of shadowing. Regarding, line-of-site (LOS) wireless communication, Nakagami-n (Rice) distribution has been traditionally selected as the optimum fading model, [1]- and the references therein.
