Abstract:
This paper presented channel sounding measurement results obtained in outdoor open square environments at 60 GHz using a millimeter-wave (mm-wave) double-directional (D-D) channel sounding system. Here, by using phased array beamforming transceivers a fast D-D channel acquisition in 180° and 360° azimuth range was achieved by configuring a 2\times 4 multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) time division-multiplexing (TDM) scheme that enables simultaneous use of two and four antenna arrays covering \pm 45^{\circ} at the transmitter and receiver, respectively. The half-power beam widths in the azimuth and elevation planes are 6^{\circ} and 45^{\circ}, respectively. Using the post-processing including multipath components (MPCs) extraction and clustering method, some observation on the multipath clusters obtained in these measurements was described and statistical characteristics of large- and small-scale parameters were presented.
