Abstract

Based on practical complex wideband measurements, a simple model for the 60 GHz indoor wireless radio channel is presented in this paper. The multipath channel is modeled by a conventional time invariant FIR filter structure. Two sets of filter coefficients are provided for typical indoor wireless LAN application scenarios with an RF bandwidth of 200 MHz and 62 GHz center frequency. The scenarios represent the line of sight (LOS) and non line of sight (NLOS) cases where omni-directional antennas are used for both transmit and receive sides. The present channel model is used for system design simulations in the European wireless ATM project MEDIAN and can easily be adopted for similar simulation purposes. Thus, a new pragmatic system design tool for the 60 GHz indoor radio environment is given with this paper
