Wideband radio propagation characteristics at 5.3 GHz in suburban environments

Wideband radio channel measurements have been performed in suburban macrocellular environment at 5.3 GHz carrier frequency and 100 MHz chip rate. This paper summarizes the radio channel properties, such as tap number, rms delay spread and K-factor characteristics for the power delay profiles. As for the system level channel characteristics, path loss and shadow fading autocorrelation models are presented
