Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine (1) some of the models commonly used to represent fading,/nand (2) the information-theoretic metrics most commonly used to evaluate performance over those models. We raise the question of whether these models and metrics remain adequate in light of the advances that wireless systems have/nundergone over the last two decades. Weaknesses are pointed/nout, and ideas on possible fixes are put forth.
