Λαμβάνοντας υπόψη, ότι η αποδοτική σχεδίαση, αξιολόγηση και εγκατάσταση ενός ασύρματου δικτύου επικοινωνιών, απαιτούν τον ακριβή χαρακτηρισμό του καναλιού διάδοσης και ειδικότερα των διαλείψεων μικρής και μεγάλης κλίμακας, το αντικείμενο μελέτης της παρούσας Διδακτορικής Διατριβής (ΔΔ) εστιάζεται στη μοντελοποίηση των διαλείψεων με νέα γενικότερα στατιστικά μοντέλα και απαρτίζεται από τρεις θεματικές ενότητες που αφορούν α) μοντέλα παρουσία συνιστώσας Οπτικής Επαφής (ΟΕ), β) μοντέλα που χαρακτηρίζονται από απουσία συνιστώσας ΟΕ καθώς και γ) χρήσιμες στατιστικές εκφράσεις για τη περιγραφή του τυχαίου θορύβου FM και της μέσης χωρητικότητας του καναλιού για μερικά από τα νέα κανάλια (α-μ, α-η-μ, α-κ-μ και α-λ-η-μ). Με βάση την υφιστάμενη διεθνή βιβλιογραφία, οι κατανομές που περιγράφουν κανάλια διαλείψεων δεν είναι αρκετά ευέλικτες και πολλές φορές είναι ανεπαρκείς για τη προσαρμογή αυτών σε δεδομένα προερχόμενα από πειραματικές μετρήσεις της έντασης ανά μονάδα επιφάνειας του ηλεκτρομαγνητικού πεδίου, τόσο για κανάλια εσωτερικών, όσο και για κανάλια υπαίθριων (εξωτερικών) χώρων. Έτσι, αρχικά δίδεται ο φυσικός μηχανισμός για την ερμηνεία κάθε νέου παρουσιαζόμενου μοντέλου. Χρησιμοποιώντας το μαθηματικό φορμαλισμό που προκύπτει από την μοντελοποίηση του ασύρματου καναλιού μέσω διαφόρων μιγαδικών Gaussian διεργασιών με διαφορετικές ιδιότητες, παρέχονται χρήσιμες εκφράσεις για την περιγραφή και αξιολόγηση των ψηφιακών συστημάτων επικοινωνιών που λειτουργούν σε περιβάλλοντα διαλείψεων. Στη συνέχεια, παρουσιάζεται η μελέτη που αφορά μοντέλα που υποθέτουν ότι η συνιστώσα πολυδιόδευσης συνυπάρχει με συνιστώσα. Έπειτα, πραγματοποιείται μελέτη μοντέλων που λειτουργούν σε συνθήκες διαλείψεων, όπου δεν υφίσταται συνιστώσα ΟΕ. Στη συνέχεια της ΔΔ, αναφορικά με κάποια από τα μοντέλα που παρουσιάστηκαν, πραγματοποιείται μελέτη και διερεύνηση του τυχαίου θορύβου FM και της Μέσης Χωρητικότητας του Καναλιού (ΜΧΚ). / The effective design, assessment, and installation of a wireless radio network require an accurate characterization of the propagation channel and, in particular, the small and large scale fading. By taking this into consideration, the subject of this Philosophy Diploma (PhD) dissertation is summarized in the characterization of fading with new more general statistical models and it is composed from three thematic units that concern: a) models under LOS conditions, v) models that are characterized by lack of a LOS component as well as c) useful statistical expressions for the description of random noise FM and average channel capacity for some of the new channels. A important amount of scientific work shows that the existing distributions are not enough flexible and many times are insufficient for the adaptation in data coming from experimental measurements of intensity per unit of surface of the electromagnetic field for both indoor and outdoor channels. Based on this fact, the objective of the Thesis was the production of new more general models with always natural background. Thus, initially, the natural mechanism is given for the interpretation of each new presented model. Using the mathematic formalism that results from the modelling of wireless channel via various complex Gaussian processes with different attributes, useful expressions are provided for the description and evaluation of digital communication systems that operate in fading environments. Consequently, initially, the basic theoretical background is presented that is rendered useful and essential for the study of fading channels. Next, a study is presented that concerns models that assume that the mulitpath part coexists with a LOS component. Then, a study of models, which assume NLOS conditions, takes place. In the next part of the PhD, in regard to some of the presented models, a study of random noise FM and ACC takes place.

Considerando canais de desvanecimento WeibulI, devido à ausência de um modelo físico para tais canais, estatísticas conjuntas de duas variáveis WeibuII correlacionadas foram obtidas em forma fechada e em função de parâmetros físicos bem conhecidos. Outra estatística encontrada foi a taxa de cruzamento de nível e a duração média de desvanecimento usando diversidade com dois ramos para canais WeibuII correlacionados, desbalanceados e não-idênticos. Além disso, uma caracterização do comportamento do processo de fase e de sua derivada temporal para sinais WeibuII foi realizada. Analisando canais de desvanecimento Nakagami-m, uma expressão simples e em forma fechada para a taxa de cruzamento de fase generalizada foi obtida. Resultados de simulação completamente validaram a formulação proposta. Além disso, novas estatísticas em forma fechada para a envoltória, para as componentes em fase e em quadratura, para a fase e para suas respectivas derivadas temporais foram obtidas / Abstract: This dissertation provides an analysis of the higher order statistics for WeibuII and Nakagami-m fading channels. Conceming WeibuII fading channels, due to the absence of a fading model related of such channels, joint statistics for two correlated WeibuII variates were obtained in cIosed-form and in terms of welI-known physical parameters. Other statistics found were the levei crossing rate and the average fade duration for unbalanced, non-identical, correlated WeibuII channels operating over two branches of diversity. Furthermore, a characterization of the behaviour of the phase process and its time derivative for WeibuII signals was accomplish. Conceming Nakagami-m fading channeIs, a simple and cIosed-form expression for the generalized phase crossing rate was obtained. Results of simulation thoroughly validated the formulation proposed. Moreover, new cIosed-form statistics for the envelope, for the in-phase and quadrature components, for the phase and its respective time derivative were derived. / Mestrado / Telecomunicações e Telemática / Mestre em Engenharia Elétrica
