Multipath channel modeling for terrestrial line-of-sight links at 19.5 GHz
نویسنده
چکیده
The need for greater bandwidth and higher data rates will inevitably lead to the usage of the lower portion of the k-band in terrestrial communication systems. The frequency band from 18 GHz to 20 GHz has been identified as a suitable candidate for short-haul line-of sight (LOS) links. As a consequence, a 6.73 km terrestrial LOS link centered at 19.5 GHz was recently established between the Howard College and Westville campuses of the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). In order to evaluate the effects of multipath propagation for the link statistical models of the channel transfer functions are required. In this paper the simulation and statistical modeling of the proposed LOS link will be discussed.
