In the channel measurement and characterization, selecting a suitable excitation signal for a specified scenario is the primary task. This letter describes several selecting criteria of the excitation signal for channel sounding. And then the popular types of probing signals are addressed and through simulations their accuracy performances are compared in time-varying channels. The conclusion is the Constant Amplitude Zero Auto-Correlation (CAZAC) sequence yields better results in time-varying scenarios.
