Ultra-Wideband Double Directional Channel Measurements for THz Communications in Urban Environments |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
Wireless communications in the THz frequency range can allow data rates of hundreds of Gbit/s, and will thus be an important part of 6G. A first important step for system design is an understanding of the underlying propagation channel. In this paper, we present results from one of the first measurement campaigns for medium-distance (up to 35 m) outdoor channels in urban environments where both the directions and delays of multipath are measured with good resolution. The results show a surprisingly rich multipath environment, leading to significant dispersion in both delay and angular domains. We also find that metallic-covered surfaces lead to a considerable enhancement of multipath, which indicates an important impact of building materials. Overall, the results indicate that relying on pronounced sparsity for THz system design might not always be valid in this type of environment. |
