Summary:
In this paper, we present propagation characteristics of the wideband MIMO channel based on indoor measurement. Statistical characterization of the wideband MIMO channel is crucial for the design of wireless mobile broadband communication systems, especially upcoming IMT-Advanced systems. We performed measurement campaign for the indoor office scenario using the Band Exploration and Channel Sounding (BECS) system developed by ETRI with 100 MHz RF bandwidth at 3.7 GHz which is the frequency band for IMT systems. Based on the measured data, we analyze the large-scale (LS) parameters, such as delay spread (DS) and angular spread (AS) of the wideband indoor office scenario. Additionally, we present cross-correlations between the LS parameters and clustering characteristics of multi-path components.
