Basic study on spatio-temporal dynamic channel properties based on channel sounder measurements

On the air (OTA) measurement has attracted attention as a method for evaluating MIMO user equipment (UE), and represents a promising candidate for the LTE and IMT-advanced systems. Moreover, we have to simulate spatiotemporal dynamic channel properties in the OTA measurement systems to evaluate MIMO systems with dynamic radio resource assignment. In this paper, we report the basic studies of the spatio-temporal dynamic channel properties based on the measured data obtained using the channel sounder in an outdoor environment to establish the dynamic channel model for the spatial fading emulator (SFE) in order to evaluate MIMO UEs.
