Furthermore, in addition to the already large class of networked appliances, next generation wireless devices in urban environments will include the new category of vehicles \cite{AntonescuTB17}, where reliability of inter-vehicular communication directly translates into safety. While at the same time in rural regions, developing countries as well as in other low-user density areas, wireless transmission links using mesh networks have become a practical alternative to wired broadband \cite{Macmillan2019tidal,Subramanian2006rethinking,Flickenger2007wireless}. +Nowadays smart phones, internet of things (IoT) devices and many other wireless applications are omnipresent and have to work in environments that are very far from ideal.

In particular, a common issue observed in the previously mentioned use cases is the so called \emph{multipath fading effect}, that degrades the reliability of a wireless transmission links \cite{Mathis, Gallager}. The problem of fading was actually foreseen \cite{Frederiksen2002overview,Maddocks1993introduction} and today most modern transmission schemes implement measures to reduce the effects fading \cite{Mathis,Hsu}. +Thus today the study of problems concerning wireless devices is a very relevant topic.

The problem of fading was actually foreseen \cite{Frederiksen2002overview,Maddocks1993introduction} and today most modern transmission schemes implement measures to reduce the effects fading \cite{Mathis,Hsu}. This work studies the multipath fading effect, and how it affects modern digital transmission systems that use quadrature amplitude (QAM) and phase shift keying (PSK) modulation. |
