ABSTRACT
We study the success rate of detecting the ordering of a line topology under correlated shadowing and fast fading for two methods from the literature which rely on signal strength measurements only. First we propose a model extension of the so far only existing spatially correlated model of log-normal shadowing for comparing two arbitrary links, which enables us to explore highly correlated links as well. For one method, we then formulate the detection probability in this correlation model when repeated nearby measurements are included, and study how far averaging can be used to mitigate small scale fading in the problem setting. Finally, for uncorrelated shadowing we observe an interesting connection between the detection probabilities with and without fading.

Determining the Center of a Line Topology with Signal Strength Measurements under Correlated Log-Normal Shadowing: Analyzing the Three Node Case
MSWiM '21: Proceedings of the 24th International ACM Conference on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and Mobile SystemsWe investigate the problem of determining which node is in the middle of an aligned sequence of an odd number of wireless network nodes. The studied solution applies the method of least squares on signal strength measurements. These measurements vary due ...
A New Approximate Closed-Form Distribution and Performance Analysis of a Composite Weibull/Log-Normal Fading Channel
The presence of both the fading and shadowing effects (also called composite multipath/shadowed fading) is often encountered in a realistic radio propagation scenario, thus, making it necessary to consider the simultaneous effect of fading and shadowing ...
Performance analysis of space-time spreading DS-CDMA systems over fast-fading general time-correlated channels
This paper examines the performance of the space-time spreading (STS), DS-CDMA in a fast-fading general time-correlated Rayleigh channel. The transmitter employs two orthogonal codes to space-time spread the incoming symbols and generates STS symbols ...
