Design and development of MIMO communication systems require a comprehensive analysis of channel characteristics. In real-world applications, the channel consists of randomly propagating signals that travel in two or more paths called multipaths. Literature shows an approach of analyzing the channel, which is knowing the number of clusters or groupings of these multipaths. This paper presents a development of an interface featuring a factor weighing approach in determining the number of clusters. Different visualizations and evaluation results are shown in the interface that allows users to visually compare and analyze the proposed method. Further, the paper shows the consistency of the results since it matches the analysis of the novel approach proposed by the authors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
