[Poster Presentation] Ultra-Wideband Spatio-Temporal Channel Sounding with Use of an OFDM Signal in an Indoor Environment
Daisuke Sugizaki, Soichi Saito, Naohiko Iwakiri, Takehiko Kobayashi (Tokyo Denki Univ.) WBS2010-29
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) 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.
