LoS theoretical and experimental MIMO study from 1-40 GHz in indoor environments
Résumé
In this work, line-of-sight multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) measurements in the frequency range from 1 GHz to 40 GHz are presented for an indoor environment in the scope of new 5G bands. For the sake of comparison, the measured radio channels are reproduced with great accuracy using ray-tracing techniques by tuning all propagation mechanisms. The relative received power, root mean square of the delay spread (RMS DS) and K-factor provide an insight of how propagation behaves in indoor scenarios within a large and contiguous frequency band. Results show that a decay factor behaves nearly constant with frequency and the RMS DS is quite sensible to frequency. From these results, faithful one-slope 5G models are proposed. Finally, the contribution of the simulated propagation mechanisms to the radio channel is investigated which suggests that the simulation of the low-mmW radio channel can be simplified.
