[Poster Presentation] Statistical Models of On-Body Ultra-Wideband Propagation Channels Considering Room Volume

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper presents the result of a statistical modeling of on-body ultra wideband (UWB) radio channels for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications. Design and verification of WBAN systems need on-body propagation channel model. Authors derived a new statistical model from a series of measurements in five different rooms. A measured delay profile can be divided into two domains: in the first domain (0 < excess delay, t &#8804; 4 ns) there is either a direct (for line of sight) or diffracted (for non line of sight) wave which is dependent on the propagation distance along the perimeter of the body, but essentially unrelated to room volume; and the second domain (t > 4 ns) has multipath components that are dominant and dependent on room volume. The first domain was modeled with a conventional power decay law model, and the second domain with a modified Saleh-Valenzuela model considering the room volume. Realizations of impulse responses are calculated. Validity of the model was demonstrated by comparing the measured and the calculated average delay profiles.
