Abstract

AbstractThe authors present spatio‐temporally resolved wideband measurements of Sub‐Terahertz (Sub‐THz) reflection coefficients in the frequency range of 92–110 GHz. A stochastic model for single reflection fixed links that is capable of modelling random scattering from small‐scale discontinuities such as those encountered in complex structures in walls and partitions of buildings is presented. The model auto‐regressively produces filter coefficients that are fed into an Infinite‐Impulse‐Response (IIR) filter which convolves them with the spatio‐temporal series in order to generate the next output sample based on previous observations. The IIR filter allows for flexible stochastic generation of samples, and its parameters can be adjusted as needed to suit different channel conditions. A total of 20 suitable start‐up filter coefficients are generated from 21.7 % of the sample size for each complex delay tap distribution, which corresponds to 50 complex instances of the channel. These coefficients are then utilised to validate the remaining measured sample set. The model is in quantitative agreement with measurement statistics and can be used to construct relatively simple modified reflection coefficients that can be used in micro‐cellular ray‐optical network planning tools.
