Channel modeling for Urban and Hilly terrain using Jakes, Gaussian and Flat spectrum for Ad-hoc network

Abstract

The radio channel places fundamental limitations on the performance of mobile ad hoc wireless networks. In the mobile radio environment, fading due to multipath delay spread impairs received signals. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a radio channel model and examine the effect of various parameters on channel behaviour that is representative of environments in which mobile ad hoc wireless networks operate. The various physical phenomena considered are outdoor environments, fading and multipath propagation, type of terrains, and mobility (Doppler shift).In this paper we are analysing channel model performance of ad-hoc network in terms of number of taps mobile Velocity and Doppler Spectrum and improve the performance of wireless network using jakes spectrum.
