Statistical analysis of ultra wideband indoor channel

Abstract

A few indoor channel models have been studied so far for different environments and the propagation mechanism for indoor industrial environment is evaluated. The channel properties arising from this propagation mechanism are quite important to build systems that realize all the potentials of UWB. In this paper, we propose a statistical channel model based on S-V model for industrial environment. The profusion of scatters due to presence of industrial metallic equipments creates dense multipath scattering and the effect of it is considered along with other multipath gain coefficient in this model. The power delay profile and the temporal dispersion properties are also investigated to characterize UWB channel.
