Characterizing Ultra-wide Band indoor line-of-sight wireless channel

By exploring the deterministic characteristics of the measurement data, a new propagation model with two deterministic clusters and stochastic arriving rays within each cluster is proposed. When considering the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the three key channel statistics, the proposed model fits the measurement data better than SV/IEEE 802.15.3, a model which is known as a standard model for UWB indoor propagation channel. Therefore, with the additional knowledge of the specific environment geometry, the proposed model generating impulse responses "resemble" the measured channel impulse responses better than IEEE model. Moreover, the proposed model's parameters obtaining procedure is simplified by utilizing simple parameters of the environment.
