Abstract

We have recorded more than 1000 channel CIRs (complex impulse responses) at /spl sim/30 GHz with temporal resolutions down to 1.25 ns and distances up to 3.8 km. Scenarios include 11 straight streets with different traffic loads, distances and building environments, some NLOS (non-line-of-sight) scenarios, residential areas fed from base stations with 25 m and 45 m antenna heights, and 3 squares. We have investigated the influences of polarization, antenna mounting position, traffic and antenna gain on fading and delay spread. Our results suggest that ATM transmission over distances of more than 200 m should be possible.
