Abstract :
Considerable interest in the indoor applications of wireless local-area networks (WLANs) demands some powerful simulation methods of these systems. Proper modeling of the physical propagation channel is crucial in this context. A novel simulation method for indoor wideband multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channel at the operating frequency band of IEEE 802.11a, HIPERLAN/2, and the emerging IEEE 802.11n standards is presented in this paper which is suitable for performance analysis of MIMO techniques in these systems. The presented model is developed on the basis of a previously proposed channel representation at the same frequency band. Simulation results for MIMO channel capacity are presented and compared with direct measured data and good agreement is observed, which confirms the validity of the proposed model.
