“…In this table, denotes the complex permittivity. The majority of literature selects specific wagon or aircraft and calibrates the materials in RT simulations according to that environment [4], [8]. In this work, the material characteristics are obtained from several different measurement works considering the given frequency bands in their analyses.…”

“…The only channel characterization work considering the 28 GHz band for IW environments is [5], where the authors focus on LOS channel sounding measurements, and path loss and shadow fading characterization. For the aircraft channel modeling, [4] conduct Ray-Tracing (RT) simulations, and provide received signal strength and coverage analysis. In [9], the authors provide channel sounding measurements at 60 GHz.…”

In this paper, the indoor dense space (IDS) channel at 28 GHz is characterized through extensive Ray-Tracing (RT) simulations. We consider IDS as a specific type of indoor environment with confined geometry and packed with humans, such as aircraft cabins and train wagons. Based on RT simulations, we characterize path loss, shadow fading, root-mean-square delay spread, Rician K-factor, azimuth/elevation angular spread of arrival/departure considering different RT simulation scenarios of the fuselage geometry, material, and human presence. While the large-scale fading parameters are similar to the stateof-the-art channel models, the small-scale fading parameters demonstrate richer multipath scattering in IDS, resulting in poorer bit error rate performance in comparison to the 3GPP indoor channel model.

“…In the presented case a typical European single aisle aircraft has been chosen as target environment for the IFE application. Since ray-tracing has been shown to be an appropriate tool for simulating 60 GHz indoor and in-cabin wave propagation [6, 7], a detailed 3D model of a part of an aircraft passenger in-cabin room was drawn up to make corresponding analyses. The model is shown in Figs 2 and 3.…”

Various wireless applications are currently under development for the unlicensed 60 GHz band. This paper describes three examples with different system requirements. The first two are point-to-multipoint wireless networks (in an airplane and in a car) and the third one is a short range point-to-point connection. Special requirements of the applications are a high number of users for the point-to-multipoint connection and a high data rate of 10 Gbit/s for the point-to-point connection system. Implementation aspects are pointed out, which are important to demonstrate the functionality of the system in a relevant environment and are key aspects to develop the related products. For example, integration aspects of the antenna into an airplane passenger seat and the receiver concept of the radio frequency-(RF) front-end to reducing the power consumption at ultrahigh data rates are described. Additionally, to determine the geometrical system architecture, ray-tracing simulations inside an aircraft and inside a car were performed.

“…On basis of the setup in the measurement campaigns, the parameters for the Tx and Rx were selected, including the antenna diagrams and their orientation. The electrical properties of the involved materials were taken from [16]. The total number of allowed interactions was set to six reflections and four transmissions.…”

This article presents measurement and analysis results for 60 GHz short-range wideband radio channels. We consider two scenarios, referred to as “very-high-rate extended-range” (VHR-E) and “ultra-high-rate cordless” (UHR-C). The VHR-E measurements aimed at 60 GHz fixed networks for an Airbus A340 cabin both under static and dynamic (shadowing due to passenger movement) channel conditions. We describe the channel sounder used for the VHR-E measurements and present a simple multipath model derived from the measurements. Furthermore, simulations show the feasibility of the ray-tracing approach for this kind of channel. As a typical UHR-C use case, a data kiosk scenario was investigated. Various propagation conditions are analyzed with respect to channel gain, time dispersion, and frequency selectivity.
