The invention provides a channel modeling method and device suitable for
satellite-ground communication, and the method comprises the steps: generating a
satellite motion track, and setting ground environment parameters and
simulation parameters; converting the
satellite motion trail from a
global coordinate system to a local coordinate
system; acquiring a satellite position from the converted
satellite motion trail, and performing
ray tracing calculation based on
plane wave hypothesis to obtain all effective
ray paths between the satellite position and the position of a ground
receiver; for each effective
ray path, calculating large-scale
fading caused by a meteorological environment and small-scale
fading caused by ground end
multipath propagation and multi-end movement; and a channel model is generated by combining large-scale
fading and small-scale fading. According to the method, large-scale fading caused by the meteorological environment is modeled, the influence of meteorological attenuation on the multipath receiving power is considered, small-scale fading caused by
multipath propagation and multi-end movement at the ground end is modeled, and the modeling accuracy is improved.
