Performance Analysis Of Rician Fading Channels In MSK And GMSK Modulation Schemes Using Simulink Environment

The need for the estimation of the effects of multipath fading and noise on the mobile channels is mandatory for the developing any communications system. For wireless facilities where there is a relatively free choice of where antennas are to be located, they can be placed so that if there are no nearby interfering obstacles, there is a direct line-of-sight path from the transmitter to receiver. This is generally the case for many satellite facilities and for point-to-point microwave. When a strong stationary path such as a Line of Sight path is introduced into the Rayleigh fading environment, the fading becomes a Ricean or Rice-distributed fading. In this paper, a review about the fading in the mobile environment is discussed followed the performance analysis of Rician fading channels in Minimum Shift Keying modulation scheme and Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying modulation scheme.
