Weibull fading

Weibull fading, named after Waloddi Weibull, is a simple statistical model of fading used in wireless communications and based on the Weibull distribution. Empirical studies have shown it to be an effective model in both indoor^[1] and outdoor^[2] environments.

In 2005, a theoretical model for a particular class of Weibull distributions was described by Sagias and Karagiannidis,^[3] who also analyzed channel capacity of a wireless channel in the presence of Weibull fading.^[4]
