Simple Model

In a simple model, a signal transmitted at time will be received as

where is the channel impulse response (CIR) at time . A signal transmitted at time will be received as

Now, if is relatively small, the channel may be considered constant within the interval to .

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or model:

    Your apple face, the simple crèche
    Of your arms, the August smells
    Of your skin. Then I sorted your clothes
    And the loves you had left, Elizabeth,
    Elizabeth, until you were gone.

Likewise, if you donate books or clothing to charity, take him with you to distribute the items to teach him about generosity.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)
