Quasi-Deterministic Channel Model for Millimeter-Wave Indoor Entrance Hall Access Links

Abstract

The IEEE 802.11ay channel models have been developed based on the quasi-deterministic (Q-D) channel modeling that considers environment specific property of millimeter-wave (mm-wave) propagation by representing multi-path channels as superposition of deterministic (called D-ray) and random clusters (called R-ray). Based on the Q-D model, this letter presented the inter-cluster parameters of the random clusters which were obtained from a double-directional channel measurement in an indoor entrance hall environment. Comparison between the parameters obtained in this study and those of the existing IEEE 802.11ay/MiWEBA model showed that both are reasonable values inferring from each corresponding environment.
