Loi de Rayleigh
En probabilités et en statistiques, la loi de Rayleigh, est une loi de probabilité à densité. Elle apparaît comme la norme d'un vecteur gaussien bi-dimensionnel dont les coordonnées sont indépendantes, centrées et de même variance. Cette loi de probabilité est baptisée d'après Lord Rayleigh. Typiquement, la distance D à laquelle une particule se trouve de son point de départ, après avoir effectué n pas d'une marche aléatoire symétrique dans le plan, suit approximativement une loi de Rayleigh de paramètre .
Diversity scheme
In telecommunications, a diversity scheme refers to a method for improving the reliability of a message signal by using two or more communication channels with different characteristics. Diversity is mainly used in radio communication and is a common technique for combatting fading and co-channel interference and avoiding error bursts. It is based on the fact that individual channels experience fades and interference at different, random times, i.e, they are at least partly independent.
Rayleigh fading
Rayleigh fading is a statistical model for the effect of a propagation environment on a radio signal, such as that used by wireless devices. Rayleigh fading models assume that the magnitude of a signal that has passed through such a transmission medium (also called a communication channel) will vary randomly, or fade, according to a Rayleigh distribution — the radial component of the sum of two uncorrelated Gaussian random variables.
Multipath propagation
In radio communication, multipath is the propagation phenomenon that results in radio signals reaching the receiving antenna by two or more paths. Causes of multipath include atmospheric ducting, ionospheric reflection and refraction, and reflection from water bodies and terrestrial objects such as mountains and buildings. When the same signal is received over more than one path, it can create interference and phase shifting of the signal. Destructive interference causes fading; this may cause a radio signal to become too weak in certain areas to be received adequately.
