Abstract

This paper describes some latest developments in the area of propagation channel modeling for new wireless access technologies. A brief overview of current wireless communication systems is presented and the principles of emerging technologies as MIMO, UWB, and 60 GHz systems are introduced. The characterization, modeling, and simulation of the propagation channel are particularly critical in the design of these systems. Recent research results concerning possible integration of these techniques in future wireless systems are presented.
