This block implements a basic fading model simulator that can be used to help evaluate, design, and test various signals, waveforms, and algorithms.
This is the template for the [[:Category:Block_Docs|"Page-per-block Docs"]].  This first section should describe what the block does and how to use it, using however many paragraphs necessary.  Note that the title of the wiki page should match the block's name in GRC, i.e. the one defined in the block's .grc file.  Look at the [[FFT]] Block for a good example.


As this is a basic template, it's also in the [[:Category:Stub_Docs|"Stub Docs category"]]. Please improve it.

Parameters

(R): Run-time adjustable

Num Sinusoids (Stochastic SoS model + delay drift)
Number of sinusoids used to simulate gain on each ray
Normalized Max Doppler (fD*Ts) (R)
Normalized maximum doppler frequency (f_doppler / f_samprate)
LOS Model
LOS path exists? chooses Rician (LOS) vs Rayleigh (NLOS) model.
Rician factor (K) (R)
Rician factor (ratio of the specular power to the scattered power)
Seed
Noise seed
PDP Delays (samp)
Time delay in the fir filter (in samples) for each arriving Wide-Sense Stationary Uncorrelated Scattering (WSSUS) Ray
PDP Delay StdDev (per samp)
A vector of values that specify the gaussian step size std of delays
PDP Delay Max-Dev (per samp)
A vector of values that specify the max deviation of each delay component
PDP Magnitudes
Magnitude corresponding to each WSSUS Ray
Num Taps
Number of FIR taps to use in selective fading model

Example Flowgraph

Insert description of flowgraph here, then show a screenshot of the flowgraph and the output if there is an interesting GUI. Currently we have no standard method of uploading the actual flowgraph to the wiki or git repo, unfortunately. The plan is to have an example flowgraph showing how the block might be used, for every block, and the flowgraphs will live in the git repo.
