Abstract

In this paper, measured millimeter-wave (mm-wave) channels with two large-scale antenna arrays in a corridor scenario are presented. The measurements were carried out using a radio-over-fiber (RoF) based vector network analyzer (VNA) channel sounder with a virtual uniform circular array (UCA) and a uniform rectangular array (URA) in a line-of-sight (LoS) scenario. The spatial-temporal characteristics of the channel are then obtained using the Bartlett beamformer and frequency invariant beamforming (FIBF) algorithms for the URA and UCA, respectively. The high dynamic range of the channel sounder coupled with the high spatial resolution of the large scale arrays enable the extraction of weak multipath components (MPC)s as well as MPCs arriving with a long delay.
