The land mobile satellite communication channel-recording, statistics, and channel model
Abstract
The communication channel between the MARECS satellite at 26 degrees W and a cruising van was measured and recorded in European areas exhibiting satellite elevations from 13 to 43 degrees . Different environments and mobile antennas were tested. The results of an extensive statistical evaluation include spectra of the fading amplitude; probability density, and distribution of the received signal power; and the percentage of time for fade and nonfade periods. Based on the physical phenomena of multipath fading and signal shadowing, an analog model of the land mobile satellite channel which can readily be used for software and hardware fading simulation is developed. The most important parameter of this model is the time-share of shadowing. The Rice factor which characterizes the channel during unshadowed periods, can vary from 3.9 to 18.1 dB. Block error probability density, error gap distribution, and block error probability are discussed.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
