Temporal radio channel variations with stationary terminal

• In wireless communications, stationary terminal scenarios are becoming increasingly important as bitrates goes up. Consequently, the need to improve the knowledge about the channel behavior and to develop realistic channel models for these scenarios is also increasing. The present work comprises both measurements and modeling of the radio channel when the terminal is stationary. The measurements were performed at 5 GHz in indoor scenarios using a vector network analyzer. The measured channel was essentially static most of the time. Only about 1% of the time did it show substantial channel variations. An important finding is that the dominant cause for temporal channel variations in the measurements was the movement of persons in the vicinity of either antenna. This is also supported by a simple model, based on a single moving scatterer, which shows good agreement with measurements.
