IV. Conclusion
In this paper, we have simulated the Rayleigh and
Rician fading channel models in vehicular environment
for the outage probability. From the simulation results,
we conclude that as the vehicle speed of user is
increased, the amount of fading is increased in the
signal envelope. Therefore, as we increase the speed,
more of the signal goes below the threshold and the
amount of fading increased. We also simulate the
Rayleigh and Rician fading channels in terms of the
outage probability by using Matlab simulation for
different thresholds of the received signal and compare
these values to those calculated analytically. However,
the results from both the simulation and analysis are
comparable. As we have observed from the comparison
table, the outage probability in the Rician fading
channel is lower than that of the Rayleigh fading
channel, which is due to the presence of line-of-sight
path in the Rician channel. We also concluded that the
outage probability increases as the mobile velocity or
Doppler shift increases. Dynamically changed multipath
and Doppler effects are the main causes behind the
degradation of the channel capacity. However, we
would like to develop a generic model for fading in
mobile communication (vehicular applications) system,
which will be reported in future communication.
