Abstract

This work presents a spatial channel model developed within the EC WINNER project. The channel model is mainly based on double-directional measurement campaigns carried out in the 5 GHz ISM band with bandwidths of up to 120 MHz. The model is based on a unified structure for indoor and outdoor environment. It covers 6 different propagation scenarios, namely indoor small office, indoor hall, urban microcell, urban macrocell, suburban macrocell, and rural environment. Both line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation conditions are modeled
