-		In wireless communication today, it is important to know how signals change on their way to the receiver. There are many different ways how this can happen, in this paper will be focuses on the study of the \emph{multipath fading effect}. The aim is to easily illustrate the change of the signal evoked through this effect. 
-		First of all some basical fundamentals are discussed, followed by the implementation in as simulation of those different models, including the transmitter and reviser chain, later with the help of two SDRs.

 To construct a graphical interface for a demonstration platform the Dear IMGUI (immediate mode graphical user interface) library was chosen, mainly for its ease of use, wide range of techincal capabilites and high refresh rate. Dear PyGUI (DPG) are the Python bindings for the Dear IMGUI library.
 
-The DPG GUI communicates with the GR flow graphs using the IP/UDP protocol. This decision to separate the project into two parts that communicate over the IP network was made because it is not very easy to extend the graphical interface of GRC without interfering with the sophisticated multi-threaded architecture of GR. Furthermore, this allows to have multiple correctly configure flow graph on disk and to choose which one to run and display on the graphical interface, instead of having a single flow graph whose parameters need to be changed each time. As a side effect, in theory this setup allows to have one computer running the graphical interface, and another remote machine running just the flow graph.

 \subsection{Fading with statistical model}
 
-In order to represent the effect of the multipaht fading not only statically, a second model was created using the Frequency Selective Fading Model from Gnu Radio, according to \ref{sec:statistical-model},which was implemented after the algorithm from the paper \cite{Alimohammad2009}, with the help of the sum-of sinusoid principal (SOS). The algorithm in this block is implemented with the aim that only a small number of sinusoids are needed.

Whish is something between zero and ten. As mentioned earlier, when  \(K=0\) the distribution is the same as with the Rayleight model. For a faktor \(K = 5.1\) the probability function is gaussien distributed.

For this delayed vector some realistic values are for the first delay \cite{Mathworks}, when theirs non line of side zero. The second delayed path depend on the environment of measurement.

 \subsubsection{Issues}
 
-Some difficulty was how to check the correction of the statistical models, if there is noise in the channel, from the fading effect, especially when the doppler frequency is included. This was difficult to recreate, when the parameter haven't the special case in which the the amplitude and the phase shift can be seen exactly.

 It is undeniable that in the last two decades wireless devices have become extremely ubiquitous, and are no longer employed under carefully chosen conditions.
 
-Nowadays smart phones, internet of things (IoT) devices and many other wireless devices omnipresent have to work in environments that are very far from ideal. 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 intra-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}.

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}.

 \section{Overview}
 
-In chapter \ref{chp:theory} the theoretical formulation and mathematical basis for the modulation schemes and channel models that have been used in this project are presented. Specifically \(M\)-ary QAM, \(M\)-PSK modulation, and three models for multipath fading are explained (continuous time, discrete time and statistical). Chapter \ref{chp:implementation} describes in detail our implementation. The transmitter and receiver chains are explained and simulations as well as measurements under different multipath fading conditions are presented. Finally some problems of the current implementation project are addressed. Chapter \ref{chp:conclusions} discusses the results of the project, and suggests how the device could be improved in the future.

-The following two sections will briefly introduce mathematical formulations of the modulation schemes and of the channel models used in this project. The notation used is summarised in \figref{fig:notation}. For conciseness encoding schemes and (digital) signal processing calculations are left out and discussed later.  Section \ref{sec:multipath-fading} presents an established mathematical model to understand multipath fading, as well as a brief description of a discrete-time model and the intricacies caused by the sampling process. Finally the concept of stochastic models is mentioned, as they are often used to simulate multipath channels \cite{Messier,Mathis}.
