Introduction:
• Communication link analysis provides the
foundation for analyzing a wireless
communication link
• The purpose is to evaluate the signal to noise
ratio at the receiver to assess the link
performance
• Evaluation of the signal power and noise
power requires the path loss and receiver
system noise temperature, respectively
Introduction
• The receiver consists of an antenna, a low-
noise amplifier, a downconverter, and a
demodulator
Basic wireless communication link
• In wireless communications, the point-to-
point link is the simplest connection between
a transmitter and a receiver
• The transmitted signal travels the line-of-sight
path to the receiver and the channel is the
free space
• A typical wireless communication system
consists of a transmitter and a receiver
