Abstract

Results of experiments made at 62.4 GHz in an urban mobile radio environment to characterize the coherence bandwidth are presented. The correlation coefficients between signal envelopes separated in frequency are measured and expressed as functions of distance from the base station. Due to the high variation of this coefficient with distance and in order to provide accurate estimates of the coherence bandwidth in the microcell, the correlation coefficient has to be measured over large sections. Two methods to calculate the coherence bandwidth are presented and compared. It is shown that estimating this parameter from the frequency correlation function obtained at each position may yield incorrect results. The coherence bandwidths for correlation levels of 0.5, 0.7, and 0.9 are given. A ray-tracing tool has been used to assist in interpreting experimental results.
