The indoor radio propagation channel 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Hashemi H. 《Proceedings of the IEEE. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers》1993,81(7):943-968
In this tutorial survey the principles of radio propagation in indoor environments are reviewed. The channel is modeled as a linear time-varying filter at each location in the three-dimensional space, and the properties of the filter's impulse response are described. Theoretical distributions of the sequences of arrival times, amplitudes and phases are presented. Other relevant concepts such as spatial and temporal variations of the channel, large-scale path losses, mean excess delay and RMS delay spread are explored. Propagation characteristics of the indoor and outdoor channels are compared and their major differences are outlined. Previous measurement and modeling efforts are surveyed, and areas for future research are suggested 相似文献

Impulse response modeling of indoor radio propagation channels 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
If indoor radio propagation channels are modeled as linear filters, they can be characterized by reporting the parameters of their equivalent impulse response functions. The measurement and modeling of estimates for such functions in two different office buildings are reported. The resulting data base consists of 12000 impulse response estimates of the channel that were obtained by inverse Fourier transforming of the channel's transfer functions. It is shown that the number of multipath components in each impulse response estimate is a normally-distributed random variable with a mean value that increases with increasing antenna separations; a modified Poisson distribution shows a good fit to the arrival time of the multipath components; amplitudes are lognormally distributed over both local and global areas, with a log-mean value that decreases almost linearly with increasing excess delay; for small displacements of the receiving antenna, the amplitude of the multipath components are correlated; the amplitudes of adjacent multipath components of the same impulse response function show negligible correlations; and the RMS delay spread over large areas is normally distributed with mean values that increase with increasing antenna separation 相似文献

A comparison of two radio propagation channel impulse response determination techniques is described. Presented are typical impulse response and transfer functions obtained from each measurement system. Also included for comparison are average impulse response envelopes and cumulative probability distributions for the RMS delay spread of static indoor radio channels calculated from 120 measurements using each system. The comparisons show good agreement between results 相似文献

The results of temporally and spatially distributed wideband (impulse response) propagation experiments in the 900 MHz and 1.7 GHz radio frequency bands in two different buildings on fixed indoor radio links are reported. Results from the temporal experiments show that, for a specific location in either of the two buildings, the dynamics of indoor channels are slightly less random at 910 MHz than at 1.7 GHz. It is believed that this would result in marginally better performance on a given transmit/receive link in the 900 MHz band. The spatially distributed measurements showed that the structures of average impulse-response envelopes differed for channels in the two buildings. In one building, RMS delay spreads were slightly greater in the 1.7 GHz band for over 90% of transmit/receive link configurations. In the other building, RMS delay spreads were marginally greater in the 900 MHz band for 70% of the configurations 相似文献

An accurate software/hardware bit-by-bit error simulator for mobile radio communications is described. Simulation results in indoor and outdoor channels are compared with theoretical results. Bit error rate (BER) results in simulated frequency-selective fading channels generated by several channel models such as two-ray, constant amplitude, and simulated indoor radio channel impulse models (SIRCIMs) are presented. It is shown that BER is not only dependent on the RMS delay spread, but also on the distribution of temporal and spatial multipath components in local areas. An important result is that a two-ray Rayleigh fading model is a poor fit for indoor wireless channels and, if used, can underestimate the BER by orders of magnitude. A real-time bit error simulation of video transmission using the bit-by-bit error simulator is described. The simulator, called BERSIM, is shown to be a useful tool for evaluating emerging data transmission products for digital mobile communications 相似文献

It is shown that the level crossing rate (LCR) of a Rayleigh distributed stochastic process is proportional to the second centralized moment of the normalized power spectrum of the underlying complex Gaussian process. This proportionality factor is independent of the power spectrum. The relation can be applied for estimating the RMS delay spread of time-dispersive (frequency-selective) radio channels from swept-frequency power measurements, where the RMS delay spread is proportional to the LCR in the frequency-domain, independent of the channel impulse response 相似文献

The growing use of unlicensed wireless systems has spurred interest in the 2.4-GHz ISM band. In order to facilitate the design of such systems, measurements of the pulse response characteristics have been made inside commercial buildings. From the measured pulse response, the statistical properties of the amplitude variation for individual pulses was determined, in addition to the path loss, mean excess delay, root mean square (RMS) delay spread, and the coherence bandwidth of the indoor channel 相似文献

In this paper, we present a wavelength depended ray-tracing algorithm to model the indoor multisource channel impulse response for visible light communication (VLC). We compare the multipath loss difference between multisource and unisource channel. We also analyze the root mean square (RMS) delay spread and average time delay of three typical wavelengths as VLC holds a wide spectrum from 380 nm to 780 nm, the spectral reflectance of walls is wavelength-dependent. And the result shows that the blue light emitting diode (LED) owns a larger communication bandwidth than other wavelengths in the room with plastic walls. Also, the path loss of three different wavelengths is compared. 相似文献

Wideband communication characteristics of wireless indoor millimetre‐wave channel for arched and rectangular buildings are investigated. The impulse responses of arched and rectangular buildings for any transmitter–receiver location are computed by shooting and bouncing ray/image (SBR/Image) techniques. By using the impulse responses of these multipath channels, the impact of shapes of building is presented and the bit error rate performance of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) system with phase and timing recovery circuits are also calculated. Moreover, dual space antenna diversity technique and decision feedback equalizer (DFE) with four forward and three feedback taps are used to combat the multipath fading. Numerical results show that the mean root mean square (rms) delay spread for the arched building is smaller than that for the rectangular building. In addition, it is also found that the transmission rate can be up to 20 Mbps for indoor millimetre‐wave channel of these two buildings by using dual space diversity and DFE.

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts in buildings behave as multimode waveguides when excited at radio frequencies and thus, can be used to distribute radio signals. The channel properties of the ducts are different from the properties of a usual indoor propagation channel. In this paper, we describe physical mechanisms which affect the HVAC channel impulse response and analyze their influence on the delay spread. Those mechanisms include antenna coupling, attenuation, and three types of dispersion: intramodal, intermodal, and multipath. We analyze each type separately and explore the behavior of the delay spread as a function of distance in straight ducts. Experimental channel measurements taken on real ducts confirm the validity of our model. 相似文献

This paper presents and analyzes the results of millimeter-wave 60-GHz frequency range propagation channel measurements that are performed in various indoor environments for continuous-route and direction-of-arrival (DOA) measurement campaigns. The statistical parameters of the propagation channel, such as the number of paths, the RMS delay spread, the path loss, and the shadowing, are inspected. Moreover, the interdependencies of different characteristics of the multipath channel are also investigated. A linear relationship between the number of paths and the delay spread is found, negative cross correlation between the shadow fading and the delay spread can be established, and an upper bound exponential model of the delay spread and the path loss is developed to estimate the worst case of the RMS delay spread at given path loss. Based on the DOA measurements that are carried out in a room [line of sight (LOS)] and in a corridor with both LOS and nonline-of-sight (NLOS) scenarios, radio-wave propagation mechanisms are studied. It is found that considering the direct wave and the first-order reflected waves from smooth surfaces is sufficient in the LOS cases. Transmission loss is very high; however, diffraction is found to be a significant propagation mechanism in NLOS propagation environments. The results can be used for the design of 60-GHz radio systems in short-range wireless applications. 相似文献

Results of experiments using a variety of antennas inside several buildings are presented. Path loss models for the 1.3 GHz and 4.0 GHz bands that show little difference in indoor path loss throughout the low-microwave region are discussed. Results show that line-of-sight (LOS) channels offer significantly more cross-polarization discrimination than obstructed channels. A profound result is that directional circularly polarized (CP) antennas always reduce RMS delay spread when compared to omnidirectional and directional linearly polarized (LP) antennas in LOS. The variation of RMS delay spread as a mobile moves over several wavelengths is also greatly reduced when CP antennas are used 相似文献

提出了一种全新超宽带(UWB,ultra-widebandwidth)室内视距(LOS,line-of-sight)环境的多径传播模型(简称多径模型)。该模型以南加州大学UltRa实验室的UWB室内LOS环境实测数据为基础,信道冲激响应具有两个确定的簇,每个簇内具有随机到达的多径射线。模型有效地利用特定环境的几何参数数据,在预测室内LOS环境的小尺度多径传播特性(平均附加时延、RMS时延扩展、最强多径数量)上较传统的统计模型更加简化和准确,与传统的确定模型相比,明显地降低了模型建立的复杂度。 相似文献

Results from propagation measurements, conducted in an indoor office environment at 2.4, 4.75, and 11.5 GHz, are presented. The data were obtained in small clusters of six measurements, using a coherent wideband measurement system. The channel characteristics for the three frequencies are compared by evaluating path loss, rms delay spread, and coherence bandwidth. An analytical model for evaluation of the bit-error rate (BER) of the stationary frequency selective indoor channel is developed for a coherent binary phase shift keying (BPSK) receiver, based on the complex impulse response of the channel. Computational BER results are obtained for data rates up to 50 Mb/s, using the measured multipath channel impulse responses. The BER results for a number of clusters are presented and compared for the maximum reliable data rate as inferred by the measured rms delay spread of the channel 相似文献

A propagation model is presented for characterizing the channel response for digital systems in urban areas where multiple reflections from buildings are encountered. A deterministic ray-tracing propagation model is used to predict the time delay and fading characteristics for the channel in a hypothetical urban area. The analysis shows that due to multiple reflection and diffraction sources, the RMS delay spread of the channel in urban areas can be several hundred nanoseconds, so that very effective equalizers will be required to achieve successful performance of high-data-rate digital systems such as 20-Mb 16-QAM digital HDTV. The channel response results presented also suggest that polarization diversity may be a useful technique for mitigating some of the channel impairments predicted by the propagation model 相似文献

We show that realistic multipath infrared channels can be characterized well by only two parameters: optical path loss and RMS delay spread. Functional models for the impulse response, based on infrared reflection properties, are proposed and analyzed. Using the ceiling-bounce functional model, we develop a computationally efficient method to predict the path loss and multipath power requirement of diffuse links based on the locations of the transmitter and receiver within a room. Use of our model is a simple, yet accurate, alternative to the use of an ensemble of measured channel responses in evaluating the impact of multipath distortion 相似文献

A statistical model of the indoor radio channel is proposed that is derived from a second order autoregressive process representation of the channel frequency response. The accuracy of the statistical model is examined by comparing the cumulative distribution functions of the RMS delay spread and the 3 dB width of the frequency correlation function computed from the regenerated data with that of the measurements performed in two indoor radio propagation studies in the 0.9-1.1 GHz band.<> 相似文献

Based on frequency domain measurements in the 0.9-1.1-GHz band, an autoregressive model for the frequency response of the indoor radio channel is introduced. It is shown that a second-order process is sufficient to represent the important statistical characteristics of the channel both in the frequency domain and the time domain where each pole identifies the arrival of a cluster of paths. A comparison is made between the statistical characteristics of the empirical data and of the channel responses regenerated from the second-order AR processes. Four methods to regenerate the indoor radio channel responses from a second-order AR model are proposed. The accuracy of the methods is examined by comparing the cumulative distribution functions of the RMS delay spread and the 3-dB width of the frequency correlation function with that of the measurements performed in global, local, and mixed indoor radio propagation experiments 相似文献
