In this work, a directional deterministic mmWave channel model for UMi SC is used to study the impact of street canyon deployment geometry on channel performance. This paper presents first results of a channel measurement campaign performed in an urban micro (UMi) street canyon scenario at 158 GHz and 300 GHz. The measurements are part of a larger research activity aiming for a better understanding of the millimeter and sub-millimeter (sub-THz and THz) mobile radio channel in extension to prior work [1].
The frequencies were chosen with respect to. One important example is the recently developed 3D-urban micro (UMi) and 3D-urban macro (UMa) channel models for LTE [1]. This paper is a summary of key results provided in a much more detailed white paper by the authors, that can be found at the link in [2].
The 3GPP 3D channel model provides additional flexibility for the elevation dimension, thereby allowing modeling for two dimensional. This paper presents first results of a channel measurement campaign performed in an urban micro (UMi) street canyon scenario at 158 GHz and 300 GHz. Path loss (PL) parameters derived from measurements for all UMi scenarios and values from ray tracing simulations for "open square, city center" (OS-CC) and "street canyon, city center" (SC-CC) scenario.
Computes the channel condition for the UMi-Street canyon scenario. Computes the channel condition following the specifications for the UMi-Street canyon scenario reported in Table 7.4.2-1 of 3GPP TR 38.901 Config Paths ns3:ThreeGppUmiStreetCanyonChannelConditionModel is accessible through the following paths with Config:Set and Config:Connect. Measurements in the UMi street canyon, as shown in figure 4, confirm that the received signals are mainly concentrated in the boresight direction in poorly scattered environments.
This result may guide the development of a statistical spatially consistent channel model for frequencies above 100 GHz in the UMi street canyon environment.
