Abstract

Radio wave propagation in subway tunnel differs strongly from other circumstances because of the multi-path characteristics and special structure. A real multi-path propagation model for radio transmission in typical rectangular subway tunnel is presented in this paper, and ray-tracing technologies and wireless statistical theory are used to analyze Doppler spread and Doppler shift. Simulation results based on Wireless Insite show that Doppler spread and Doppler shift in tunnel are depended strongly upon frequency and velocity. Higher frequency signals and higher train´s velocity exhibit larger Doppler spread and Doppler shift. The simulation results in this paper provide a reference for the application of 4G and 5G technologies used in metro system.
