Microwave vector network analyzer (VNA) has been widely used to as an ultra wideband (UWB) channel sounder. However, channel sounders using VNAs have some limitations: there is only one snapshot; and incoming waves tend to be strongly correlated due to sounding signals of sine waves. To overcome the above issues, a UWB spatio-temporal channel sounder, employing an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal and a virtual array antenna, was developed along with a proposed technique for estimating time-of-arrival (TOA) and angle-of-arrival (AOA) of UWB OFDM signals. Comparison was carried out between the VNA- and the OFDM-based channel sounders in term of experimental estimation of TOAs and AOAs in an indoor three-path environment. |
