N2 - In this letter, a new general composite fading model, namely \alpha-\eta-\kappa-\mathcal {F} model, is proposed. It considers most of the well-known propagation phenomena in wireless fading channels, such as shadowing, multi-path fading, non-linearity of the propagation medium, power of the dominant components, and power of the scattered waves. Additionally, most of the important statistical fading models are included in the \alpha-\eta-\kappa-\mathcal {F} model as special cases. The envelope probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) are derived and then employed to derive the PDF and CDF of the instantaneous signal-To-noise ratio. The performance of a wireless communication system operating under the \alpha-\eta-\kappa-\mathcal {F} composite model is evaluated in terms of outage probability and symbol error rate. Numerical results are supported by Monte-Carlo simulations to validate the analysis.
