Question

Which of the following is not a statistical models for multipath fading channels?

(a) Clarke’s model for flat fading

(b) Saleh and Valenzuela indoor statistical model

(c) Two ray Rayleigh fading model

(d) Faraday model

This question was posed to me during an online interview.

Question is from Statistical Models for Multipath Fading Channels in portion Mobile Radio Propagation: Small – Scale Fading and Multipath of Wireless/Mobile

Answer 1

The correct choice is (d) Faraday model

The explanation: Several multipath models have been suggested to explain the observed statistical nature of a mobile channel. Clarke’s model for flat fading, Saleh and Valenzuela indoor statistical model, two ray Rayleigh fading model are some of the statistical model for multipath fading channels.
