Abstract
In the wireless network, many physical conditions may arise where received signal power is shadowed by moving objects along the propagation paths, and further shadowing of the received signal may result from moving objects around the transmitters or receivers. This phenomenon is mathematically modelled in terms of the double (or dual) shadowing process brought about by fading channels where both dominant and scattered wave components fluctuate together. In this present study, the outcome aspects of dual-shadowed wireless fading channels are explored in accordance with outage analysis, channel capacity, and average bit error rate (ABER) for coherent as well as non-coherent modulation schemes. Here, the Rician envelope, which undergoes two shadowing effects, is assumed. The channel format described here is such that both dominant and scattered signals are impacted by the Nakagami m random variable (RV). As a model, the mathematical expressions are derived for channel capacity, outage analysis, and ABER for dual-shadowed Rician fading channels. The effects of different shadowing parameters are explored, and corresponding results are plotted. All the evaluative results are recognised by emulating the simulation results for various values of the fading parameters.
