Indoor radiated-mode leaky feeder propagation at 2.0 GHz

This paper presents the results of narrow-band and wide-band propagation measurements carried out at 2.0 GHz in an indoor environment using a radiated-mode leaky feeder as the transmitting antenna. The narrow-band measurements were devised to measure attenuation of radio signals and the wide-band techniques to measure multipath impulse responses and their associated root mean square (RMS) delay spread. Analysis of the narrow-band data files shows that the received signal levels in the direction along the feeder generally decay exponentially due to the feeder-specific attenuation. The received signal levels in the direction radial to the feeder decrease slowly, and the distance-power law exponent is found to be smaller than one. The slow and fast variations of the received signal levels are also examined. The results reveal that the slow variations basically follow the log-normal distribution, while the fast variations fit the Rayleigh distribution in the direction parallel to the feeder and the Rician distribution in the direction radial to the feeder, respectively. Analysis of the wide-band data files reveals that the maximum value of the RMS delay spread is 60.6 ns and the RMS delay spread values are less than 42 ns 50% of the time. One therefore can conclude that the indoor channel excited by the radiated-mode leaky feeder has a broad coherent band-width and can support a data rate of up to 3.3 Mb/s without equalization     

Underground use of a coaxial cable with leaky sections

The optimum efficiency of a leaky cable as a support for radio communications in tunnels involves a compromise between high leakage fields and a low increase of the coaxial mode attenuation. The latter is an important disadvantage of continuous leaky feeders. To obviate this, short leaky sections can be inserted in an otherwise well-shielded coaxial cable. These sections act as mode converters or radiators. A theoretical analysis based on coupled line theory enables us to determine the optimum characteristics of the leaky sections. Numerous experiments were carried out in a tunnel at various frequencies, using different lengths and characteristics of the leaky sections.     

Coaxial cable passive mesh networks

This paper presents a new type of fault-tolerant access network: an all-passive coaxial cable mesh network. The passive mesh network could have any topology, with cycles allowed. A technique for calculating the multipath response of the passive mesh network is presented. Both the delay and attenuation of a coaxial cable are represented by a single transform variable. The mesh network is modeled as a linear system with a state space that represents signal propagation. The channel responses of the individual sections of cable define the entries of a state-transition matrix. Using this theory, expressions are given for the overall mesh-network channel response. These expressions are manipulated to derive equalizer structures. The equalizers are zero-forcing and use decision feedback. It is shown that signals transmitted on any mesh network can be equalized. An example mesh topology, and equalizers for it, are presented. Signal and interference attenuation, and opposite-phase received carrier cancellation, are also discussed. The passive mesh network could be an inexpensive fault-tolerant architecture for residential access to telephony, cable TV, and future services     

A comparison of time delay spread and signal level measurements within two dissimilar office buildings

A detailed analysis of time delay spread and signal level measurements at 850 MHz was performed within a large office building. The results were compared with studies of a much smaller and dissimilar office building. The results were found to be substantially the same, despite the physical differences of the buildings themselves. This may be due to external geographical features. Overall worst-case root mean square (rms) time delay spreads in the buildings were 250 ns and 218 ns in the larger and smaller building, respectively. However, these values improved to under 100 ns when there was a good direct path between the antennas. Time delay spread was also shown to be independent of relative antenna polarizations of the transmitter and receiver, even on line-of-sight paths. Received signal levels were below -90 dB with reference to the level at 0.3 m separation, in the worst cases.     

Experimental characterization of EHF multipath indoor radiochannels

This paper reports on experimental results and their interpretations for an indoor extremely high frequency (EHF) multipath channel. It is intended to help in establishing design guidelines for indoor wireless communications systems using millimeter waves. It deals with measurements obtained for the narrow and wideband indoor radio channels at 37.2 GHz within a typical concrete building at Laval University. Two kinds of transmission antennas, omnidirectional and directional, are used to investigate the propagation characteristics for the indoor channel. Under line-of-sight (LOS) conditions, the distance-power law exponent is found to be lower than the free space condition with walls playing a major role on the sustaining of high level signals. Large- and smallscale variations extracted from the original data are shown to follow log-normal and Rice distributions, respectively. The observed wideband impulse response has delay spread extending over a range up to 40 ns and a maximum root mean square (rms) value of about 16 ns. Both amplitude and phase behaviors of the signals are available for a better understanding of the various effects

Time delay spread and signal level measurements of 850 MHz radio waves in building environments

Time delay spread and signal level measurements of 850 MHz radio signals were made over inside-to-outside radio paths at two residential locations and an office building. Root mean square time delay spreads of up to 420 ns were encountered in residential environments. However, when a direct path was present, this improved to less than 325 ns overall, and even to 100 ns at one residence. Received power levels were around -40 dB, with respect to levels received at 0.3 m antenna separation, Under favorable conditions. In other cases, these relative levels varied from - 40 to - 80 dB. Median signal levels agreed well with continuous wave measurements made earlier at one site. No significant polarization dependence or floor level dependence were seen in these data.     

Comparison of GTD propagation model wide-band path loss simulationwith measurements

The geometrical theory of diffraction (GTD) wedge diffraction has been used successfully in the GTD propagation model to predict narrowband continuous-wave (CW) radiowave propagation characteristics. The GTD propagation model uses a two-dimensional terrain profile approximated as piecewise-linear and computes reflection and diffraction effects with model output representing a complex approximation to the narrowband channel transfer function. Using the narrowband GTD model as a starting point, a wideband terrain-sensitive model has been developed which is capable of predicting wide-bandwidth propagation characteristics. The complex wideband channel transfer function calculated by the GTD model is transformed to the time domain by a fast Fourier transform (FFT). The results are then used to predict time-domain radio transmission loss in the form of a bandlimited approximation to the channel impulse response. Important channel parameters such as delay spread, and wideband received signal level can then be calculated. The GTD predicted results are put in a suitable format and compared with measurements obtained by SRI International

Path loss, scattering and multipath delay statistics in fourEuropean cities for digital cellular and microcellular radiotelephone

The authors present typical and worst-case root mean square (RMS) delay spreads and excess delay spreads (10 dB) and mean channel path loss at 900 MHz in four European cities using typical cellular and microcellular antenna locations. Several thousand power delay profile measurements were made at six typical cellular and microcellular base station locations in the four cities. The data were obtained at local worst-case time-dispersion locations over hundreds of kilometers of typical operating routes, such as highways, bridges, and city streets, and form the basis for statistical models which can be used to predict the percentage of locations or the percentage of time in which channels will possess particular values of RMS delay spread and excess delay spread. The effect of reference distance on wideband path loss and the propagation path loss laws for cellular and microcellular radio channels are given. Radar cross sections computed from the data for typical scatterers in cellular and microcellular radio channels are given

Top-down random channel generator for the narrowband power line communication

This paper proposes a random channel generator for the narrowband power line communication (PLC). Based on the top-down approach, an analytical formulation with a limited set of parameters is established for the PLC channel transfer function in the frequency band below 500 kHz. Then, the extracted parameters deduced from measurements are fitted with proper distribution functions. The top-down random channel generator is validated through the comparison between measured and generated channels in terms of time–frequency characterization metrics, especially the average channel attenuation, the root mean square (RMS) delay spread and the coherence bandwidth. Obtained results show the good agreement between the proposed modeled channels and the experimental ones with very close mean values and distributions of the main metrics.

Propagation characteristics for wideband outdoor mobilecommunications at 5.3 GHz

In this paper, empirical channel models and parameters are derived from the wideband measured data at 5.3 GHz in outdoor mobile communications. The path loss exponents and intercepts are obtained by using the least square method. The mean excess delay and mean root-mean-square (rms) delay spread are within 29-102 ns and 22-88 ns, respectively. The correlation distances and bandwidths are within 1-11 λ and 1.2-11.5 MHz, respectively, when the envelope correlation coefficients equal 0.7 in line-of-sight cases. These correlation values depend strongly on the base station antenna heights. The window length for averaging out the fast fading components is about 1-2 m for microcells and picocells. The multipath number distributions follow both Poisson's and Gao's distributions, but Gao's distribution is better in the high probability region. Large excess delays up to 1.2 μs and rms delay spread about 0.42 μs are found in the urban rotation measurements, where the receiver is close to a large open square
