Abstract
This paper addresses the extension of a stochastic geometry-based scattering model to multipolarized transmissions. The initial approach is based on a geometrical distribution of obstacles derived from known power-delay profiles. Each scattering process is statistically described by a matrix reflection coefficient corresponding to dual-polarization states. Ultimately, the model allows us to simulate the effects of the range on K-factor, delay-spread, Doppler spectrum, channel correlations and capacity, branch power ratio, and cross-polar discrimination. Simulation results are compared with existing measurements at 2.5 GHz. The proposed model is then used to investigate various dual-polarization 2 × 2 multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) schemes such as 0°/90° or ±45°, as well as to optimize the design of multipolarized MIMO schemes.
