Fading characteristics of radio-wave on high-rise floors in mobile communications

In order to overcome the increasing traffic problems of mobile terminals used on the upper floors of high-rise buildings, a three-dimensional cell configuration that has small cells on various floors is considered. It is necessary to clarify the fading characteristics of radio-waves from outdoor macrocell to the floors, in order to evaluate the wireless transmission technology for the three-dimensional cell configuration. In this paper, we measure the fading characteristics of radio waves on high-rise floors for mobile communications.
