Measurements Based mmW Channel Modelling in Railway Environments

This paper presents results from radio propagation channel characterization for a platooning scenario in a railway environment. The measurements were conducted using the IMT Atlantique / Lab-STICC SIMO CS system, operating at a carrier frequency of 60 GHz with a bandwidth of 180 MHz. The measurement site is a marshalling yard within a railway trial center. Based on these measurements, the Path Loss in a LoS situation is analyzed, along with the evolution of the RMS delay spread. The results are compared to those from a previous measurement campaign conducted on a similar track at mmWave frequencies. Finally, the parameters of the Rician distribution used to model small-scale fading are presented.

Abstract

This paper presents results from radio propagation channel characterization for a platooning scenario in a railway environment. The measurements were conducted using the IMT Atlantique / Lab-STICC SIMO CS system, operating at a carrier frequency of 60 GHz with a bandwidth of 180 MHz. The measurement site is a marshalling yard within a railway trial center. Based on these measurements, the Path Loss in a LoS situation is analyzed, along with the evolution of the RMS delay spread. The results are compared to those from a previous measurement campaign conducted on a similar track at mmWave frequencies. Finally, the parameters of the Rician distribution used to model small-scale fading are presented.
