Excess Delay
The propagation delay relative to that of the shortest path
Strength Variation
As the vehicle moves over a short distance, the strength of each path varies because the surfaces are complex

Path Model
The channel is assumed to comprise N discrete paths of propagation (rays) Each path has an amplitude (t), a phase (t) and a propagation delay

Narrowband Fading
This same type of fading happens to a digital waveform if the symbol period is much larger than (>10 times) the channel length Such long symbol periods correspond to narrowband signals

For this to be mean excess delay, the origin of the axis needs to be the time of the first arriving path

doesnt vary much with frequency over the bandwidth of the transmitted signal
Narrowband Case
The channel appears flat to the signal
H (t , f )
Transmitted Signal Spectrum
Flat Fading
When <<symbol period, we say the signal undergoes flat fading The channel frequency response is approximately flat over the signal bandwidth
900z
Wideband Case
>> symbol period implies that the frequency response of the channel varies significantly with frequency over the bandwidth of the transmitted signal
fading
H (t , f )
The channel frequency response is strong for some frequencies and not for others within the signal bandwidth

Summary
The multipath channel model has a discrete number of propagation paths Each path has amplitude, phase and delay The PDP is the local average of the magnitude squared of the impulse response of the channel Average power of the channel is the integral of the PDP Average power is same for narrowband and wideband channels The fading is flat or frequency selective depending on the comparison between rms delay spread and the symbol period
