Cross Correlation Characteristics of Large Scale Parameters in Urban Macro Cell

Extensive analysis of channel measurement data for the investigation of new channel models plays a fundamental role in designing and evaluating todays wireless communication systems. Besides the knowledge of the parameters and their distribution functions, the cross correlation between them is of great interest and can be exploited for more sophisticated channel simulations. In this contribution the cross correlation characteristics of the large scale parameters (LSP) in the power and delay domain are investigated for different parameter estimation procedures (taking the spatial filtering due to directional antennas into account or neglecting it), for various distance ranges between base station (BS) and mobile station (MS) as well as for different antenna heights.
