1. two major categories of mobile fading channels
Analog channels
Rayleigh, Rice, Nakagami, SIMO, MIMO, etc
Digital channels
DPBGM(*)
generative model: generates a model similar to the target error sequences.

2. three Propagation Mechanisms(三种传播机制)
Reflection
Scattering
Diffraction(衍射)
3. Large-Scale Fading and Small-Scale Fading
large-scale fading(slow)
path loss
shadowing
small-scale fading(fast)
(大尺度衰落--小尺度衰落--噪声)
4. Analog mobile fading channel models
reference model: a theoretical mathematical model which is non-realizable in software/hardware.
Simulation model: stochastic or deterministic, realizable in software/hardware.
