Abstract: | The use of satellite systems in the implementation of third-generation mobile communication systems obviously involves a propagation environment for the signal different from that in the conventional terrestrial first- and second-generation systems. The propagation conditions and phenomena met with are embraced by the expression `land mobile satellite (LMS) channel'. This paper reviews the studies of the LMS channel reported in the literature. The various models are classified and compared in such a way that their similarities and differences are apparent |
