Wireless Channel Modeling Based on Finite-State Markov Model

Abstract

The main objective of the overall proposed research was to develop a robust video communication over Airborne Networks that are operational under time varying and error prone battlefield environments with limited bandwidth and potentially transmitting/receiving with mobile and portable devices. The overall robust video communication system aiming at providing high performance video transmission under dynamic and time varying Airborne Networks will be explained in the technology background section. The objective of the first phase of this project is to develop a channel simulation toolset that is able to capture some major characteristics of the Airborne Networks. The team at the Florida Institute of Technology has been able to implement a wireless channel simulation based on Finite-State Markov Model to simulate and analyze the error and loss characteristics. The simulation is currently based on command line execution.
