Weibull Fading

Weibull fading, named after Waloddi Weibull, is a simple statistical model of fading used in wireless communications and based on the Weibull distribution. Empirical studies have shown it to be an effective model in both indoor and outdoor environments.

In 2005, a theoretical model for a particular class of Weibull distributions was described by Sagias and Karagiannidis, who also analyzed channel capacity of a wireless channel in the presence of Weibull fading.

Famous quotes containing the word fading:

    This is the dead land
    This is cactus land
    Here the stone images
    Are raised, here they receive
    The supplication of a dead man’s hand
    Under the twinkle of a fading star.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
