An Indoor Channel Model for High Data-Rate Communications in D-Band

Abstract

This paper proposes a measurement based modeling of D-band indoor channels. Different indoor environments were considered including Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions. Double steering at the transmitter and receiver sides was performed allowing angular characterization of the channel. Path loss, delay spread, angular spread, intra- and inter- cluster characteristics were also modeled. These characteristics were then compared to the ones obtained in other millimeter wave bands for the same environment.
