expand all in page

Description

The comm.RayleighChannel System object™ filters an input signal through the multipath Rayleigh fading channel. For more information on fading model processing, see the Methodology for Simulating Multipath Fading Channels section.

To filter an input signal through a multipath Rayleigh fading channel:

  1. Create the comm.RayleighChannel object and set its properties.

  2. Call the object with arguments, as if it were a function.

To learn more about how System objects work, see What Are System Objects?

Creation

Syntax

rayleighchan = comm.RayleighChannel
rayleighchan = comm.RayleighChannel(Name,Value)

Description

rayleighchan = comm.RayleighChannel creates a frequency-selective or frequency-flat multipath Rayleigh fading channel System object. This object filters a real or complex input signal through the multipath channel to obtain a channel-impaired signal.

example

rayleighchan = comm.RayleighChannel(Name,Value) sets properties using one or more name-value arguments. For example, 'SampleRate',2 sets the input signal sample rate to 2.

Properties

expand all

Unless otherwise indicated, properties are nontunable, which means you cannot change their values after calling the object. Objects lock when you call them, and the release function unlocks them.

If a property is tunable, you can change its value at any time.

For more information on changing property values, see System Design in MATLAB Using System Objects.

Input signal sample rate in hertz, specified as a positive scalar.

Data Types: double

Discrete path delay in seconds, specified as a scalar or row vector.

  • When you set PathDelays to a scalar, the channel is frequency flat.

  • When you set PathDelays to a vector, the channel is frequency selective.

The PathDelays and AveragePathGains properties must be the same length.

Data Types: double

Average gains of the discrete paths in decibels, specified as a scalar or row vector. The AveragePathGains and PathDelays properties must be the same length.

Data Types: double

Normalize average path gains, specified as one of these logical values:

  • 1 (true) — The fading processes are normalized so that the total power of the path gains, averaged over time, is 0 dB.

  • 0 (false) — The total power of the path gains is not normalized.

The AveragePathGains property specifies the average powers of the path gains.

Data Types: logical

Maximum Doppler shift for all channel paths, specified as a nonnegative scalar. Units are in hertz.

The maximum Doppler shift limit applies to each channel path. When you set this property to 0, the channel remains static for the entire input. You can use the reset object function to generate a new channel realization. The MaximumDopplerShift property value must be smaller than SampleRate/10/fc for each path. fc is the cutoff frequency factor of the path. For most Doppler spectrum types, the value of fc is 1. For Gaussian and bi-Gaussian Doppler spectrum types, fc is dependent on the Doppler spectrum structure fields. For more details about how fc is defined, see the Cutoff Frequency Factor section.

Data Types: double

Doppler spectrum shape for all channel paths, specified as a Doppler spectrum structure or a 1-by-NP cell array of Doppler spectrum structures. These Doppler spectrum structures must be outputs of the form returned from the doppler function. NP is the number of discrete delay paths specified by the PathDelays property. The MaximumDopplerShift property defines the maximum Doppler shift value that the DopplerSpectrum property permits when you specify the Doppler spectrum..

  • When you set DopplerSpectrum to a single Doppler spectrum structure, all paths have the same specified Doppler spectrum.

  • When you set DopplerSpectrum to a cell array of Doppler spectrum structures, each path has the Doppler spectrum specified by the corresponding structure in the cell array.

Specify options for the spectrum type by using the specType input to the doppler function. If you set the FadingTechnique property to 'Sum of sinusoids', you must set DopplerSpectrum to doppler('Jakes').

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the MaximumDopplerShift property to a positive scalar.

Data Types: struct | cell

Channel filtering, specified as one of these logical values:

  • 1 (true) — The channel accepts an input signal and produces a filtered output signal.

  • 0 (false) — The object does not accept an input signal, produces no filtered output signal, and outputs only channel path gains. You must specify the duration of the fading process by using the NumSamples property.

Data Types: logical

Output channel path gains, specified as a logical 0 (false) or 1 (true). Set this property to true to output the channel path gains of the underlying fading process.

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the ChannelFiltering property to true.

Tunable: Yes

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the ChannelFiltering property to false.

Data Types: double

Path gain output data type, specified as 'double' or 'single'.

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the ChannelFiltering property to false.

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the FadingTechnique property to 'Sum of sinusoids'.

Data Types: char | string

Initial time offset for the fading model in seconds, specified as a nonnegative scalar.

When mod(InitialTime/SampleRate) is nonzero, the initial time offset is rounded up to the nearest sample position.

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the FadingTechnique property to 'Sum of sinusoids' and the InitialTimeSource property to 'Property'.

Data Types: double

Source of the random number stream, specified as 'Global stream' or 'mt19937ar with seed'.

  • When you specify 'Global stream', the object uses the current global random number stream for random number generation. In this case, the reset object function resets only the filters.

  • When you specify 'mt19937ar with seed', the object uses the mt19937ar algorithm for random number generation. In this case, the reset object function resets the filters and reinitializes the random number stream to the value of the Seed property.

Data Types: char | string

Initial seed of the mt19937ar random number stream generator algorithm, specified as a nonnegative integer. When you call the reset object function, it reinitializes the mt19937ar random number stream to the Seed value.

Dependencies

To enable this property, set the RandomStream property to 'mt19937ar with seed'.

Produce the same multipath Rayleigh fading channel response by using two different methods for random number generation. The multipath Rayleigh fading channel System object includes two methods for random number generation. You can use the current global stream or the mt19937ar algorithm with a specified seed. By interacting with the global stream, the System object can produce the same outputs from these two methods.

Create a PSK modulator System object to modulate randomly generated data.

Show that the channel state is maintained for discontinuous transmissions by using multipath Rayleigh fading channel System objects that use the sum-of-sinusoids technique. Observe discontinuous channel response segments overlaid on a continuous channel response.

Set the channel properties.

fs = 1000;               % Sample rate (Hz)
pathDelays = [0 2.5e-3]; % In seconds
pathPower = [0 -6];      % In dB
fD = 5;                  % Maximum Doppler shift (Hz)
ns = 1000;               % Number of samples
nsdel = 100;             % Number of samples for delayed paths

Define a continuous time span and three discontinuous time segments over which to plot and view the channel response. View a 1000-sample continuous channel response that starts at time 0 and three 100-sample channel responses that start at times 0.1, 0.4, and 0.7 seconds, respectively.

to0 = 0.0;
to1 = 0.1;
to2 = 0.4;
to3 = 0.7;
t0 = (to0:ns-1)/fs;      % Transmission 0
t1 = to1+(0:nsdel-1)/fs; % Transmission 1
t2 = to2+(0:nsdel-1)/fs; % Transmission 2
t3 = to3+(0:nsdel-1)/fs; % Transmission 3

Create a frequency-flat multipath Rayleigh fading System object, specifying a 1000 Hz sampling rate, the sum-of-sinusoids fading technique, disabled channel filtering, and the number of samples to view. Specify a seed value so that results can be repeated. Use the default InitialTime property setting so that the fading channel is simulated from time 0.

rayleighchan1 = comm.RayleighChannel('SampleRate',fs, ...
    'MaximumDopplerShift',fD, ...
    'RandomStream','mt19937ar with seed', ...
    'Seed',17, ...
    'FadingTechnique','Sum of sinusoids', ...

    'NumSamples',ns);

Create a clone of the multipath Rayleigh fading channel System object. In the cloned object, set the number of samples to view for the delayed paths. Also configure the initial time source as an input so that you can specify the fading channel offset time as an input argument when using the System object.

rayleighchan2 = clone(rayleighchan1);
rayleighchan2.NumSamples = nsdel;
rayleighchan2.InitialTimeSource = 'Input port';

Save the path gain output for the continuous channel response by using the rayleighchan1 object and for the discontinuous delayed channel responses by using the rayleighchan2 object with initial time offsets are provided as input arguments.

pg0 = rayleighchan1();
pg1 = rayleighchan2(to1);
pg2 = rayleighchan2(to2);
pg3 = rayleighchan2(to3);

Compare the number of samples processed by the two channels by using the info object function. The rayleighchan1 object processed 1000 samples, while the rayleighchan2 object processed only 300 samples.

G = info(rayleighchan1);
H = info(rayleighchan2);
[G.NumSamplesProcessed H.NumSamplesProcessed]
ans = 1×2

        1000         300

Convert the path gains into decibels.

pathGain0 = 20*log10(abs(pg0));
pathGain1 = 20*log10(abs(pg1));
pathGain2 = 20*log10(abs(pg2));
pathGain3 = 20*log10(abs(pg3));

Plot the path gains for the continuous and discontinuous cases. The gains for the three segments match the gain for the continuous case. Because the channel characteristics are maintained even when data is not transmitted, the alignment of the two plots shows that the sum-of-sinusoids technique is suited to the simulation of packetized data.
