[ADG10] On the Capacity of Mid-latitude High Frequency Ionospheric ChannelRevue Internationale avec comité de lecture : Journal Wireless Personal Communications, Springer, vol. 60(02), pp. 237-249, 2010, (doi:10.1007/s11277-010-9940-8)Mots clés: Ionospheric communications, Capacity, Rayleigh fading
Résumé:
In this paper we consider the theoretical characterization of the ionospheric
transmission. More accurately, we derive a closed form expression of the average capacity
for Mid-latitude High Frequency (HF) ionospheric channels. Heretofore, this problem has
been studied for Rayleigh channels when each tap of the impulse response has a Rayleigh
distribution without characterizing the variance of this distribution. In this paper, we extend
these works to HF ionospheric channels by evaluating the variance of the amplitude attenuation
versus the Doppler spread and then the channel capacity. For a multipath HF ionospheric
channel, we model the Doppler phenomenon as a Gaussian profile which is suggested for HF
environments. Finally, we derive a closed form expression of the average channel capacity
using the probability density function (pdf) of the instantaneous impulse response. Numerical
results on both simulated and real measured data are derived at the end of the paper.
