Large Scale Parameter for the WINNER II Channel Model at 2.53 GHz in Urban Macro Cell

This paper presents results of wide band channel measurements at 2.53 GHz for a representative urban macro cell environment in Ilmenau, Germany. The extensive channel sounding campaign covered the MIMO radio links from 22 mobile tracks to 3 different base stations and 1 relay station. The results presented in this paper provide insight into the large scale parameter analysis of the power, delay domain, including the transmission loss and the statistical distributions of the shadow fading, narrowband k-factor and delay spread. Large scale parameters from angle domain (azimuth and elevation) are derived based on the high resolution multipath parameter estimation (RIMAX). Furthermore the cross correlation of these parameters are investigated and compared to state-of-the-art channel models as from the IST-WINNER.
