We will take advantage of this Gaussian simplification later in our framework. As for the shadowing variable, log-normal is shown to be a good match for the distribution of ΥSH (q). Then, we have the following zero-mean Gaussian pdf 2 1 for the distribution of ν(q): fν (x) = √2πα e−x /2α , where α is the
