Wide-Sense-Stationarity of Everyday Wireless Channels for Body-to-Body Networks
Samiya M. Shimly, David B. Smith, Samaneh Movassaghi
The existence of wide-sense-stationarity (WSS) in narrowband wireless body-to-body networks is investigated for "everyday" scenarios using many hours of contiguous experimental dat…
