Such an approach is justified by the fact that the spectral efficiency achieved by any multiple access communication system depends on the physical model of the fading radio environment

For example, if nothing is known for the fading statistics of a channel then its countable capacity (in bits/s) will be dictated by the minimum fade signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), , and will, thus, tend to zero as on the other hand, if fad
