Abstract :
The transmission performance of wide-band digital radio systems, using the 60 GHz band, is evaluated for different antenna configurations in a room. As there are no models able to express the impact of a selected antenna set-up on the resulting propagation channel model, the complex impulse response (CIR) of the multipath radio channel was calculated using an appropriate ray tracing tool. Service bit rates of 17 and 34 Mbit/s per carrier are assumed to be achievable, when using 4-OQAM (not requiring linear amplification) and 16-OQAM, respectively. Moreover, these bit rates can be doubled within small and, in certain cases, medium size rooms [1]. Simulation results for several mobile station positions along the room, with different antennae setup are presented and discussed
