Abstract

AbstractRecently the fusion of positioning and wireless communication has gained many interests due to the merits of location information for future communication systems. Both positioning and wireless communication are highly dependent on the air channel. Current channel models are well suited for communication applications but less for positioning. Therefore, we investigate and compare the channel characteristics of different floors in favour of positioning based on an outdoor to indoor broadband channel sounder measurement campaign. Power delay profiles on both floors show similar structure caused by outdoor wave propagation, and angle of arrivals mostly arrive from the same direction. Differences can be seen in the RMS delay spread, power, NLoS error and coherence characteristics. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
