Spatial correlation analysis of indoor radiowave propagation measurements for wireless LANs

The spectrum at microwave frequencies has been proposed within Europe and the United States for evolving high bit rate wireless local area network standards. Very few results have been published, however, for radiowave propagation measurements obtained within buildings at these frequencies. Results are presented for an investigation into the spatial correlation of wideband measurements within a typical wireless local area network environment, using a vector network analyser based measurement system at the University of Wales Swansea
