A Simulation Model for Nakagmi-M Fading Channel with M>1

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a model to simulate a wireless fading channel based on Nakagami-m distribution with m>1. The Nakagami-m fading channel is the most generalized distribution as it can generate one-sided Gaussian distribution, Rayleigh distribution and Rician distribution for m equals to 0.5, 1 and >1 respectively. In this work we have proposed a method to generate a wireless fading channel based on Nakagami-m distribution as this distribution fits to a wide class of fading channel conditions. Simulation results were obtained using Matlab R2013a and compared with the analytical results.
