Abstract

A new method for measuring the instantaneous broadband frequency-domain characteristics using an OFDM technique was introduced and its effectiveness was verified based on indoor measurements. Dynamic variations of the spectrum for selected conditions pertaining to the room size were studied by both ray trace simulation and measurement at 5.2 GHz. The results showed that area size dependencies on dynamic variation of the spectrum were not remarkable. The instantaneous variation of the frequency characteristics over the range of 20 MHz enabled the analysis of the dynamic variations in a frequency spectrum and an evaluation of the multipath characteristics that is more detailed than before.
