Rician Amplitude

 

Integrate joint PDF over f from 0 to 2p:
Rician PDF of r

where

I0(×) is the modified Bessel function of the first kind and zero order

"q overline" is the total scattered power (= s2).

 

 

Rician K-ratio

K = direct power C2/2 over scattered power s2

 

 

Measured values K = 4 ... 1000 (6 to 30 dB) for micro-cellular systems
