Indoor Channel Measurements and Communications System Design at 60 GHz

XXIX URSI General Assembly, Chicago : \'Etats-Unis (2008) This paper presents a brief overview of several studies concerning the indoor wireless communications at 60 GHz performed by the IETR. The characterization and the modeling of the radio propagation channel are based on several measurement campaigns realized with the channel sounder developed at IETR. Some typical residential environments were also simulated by ray tracing and Gaussian Beam Tracking. The obtained results show a good agreement with the similar experimental results. Currently, the IETR is developing a high data rate wireless communication system operating at 60 GHz. The single-carrier architecture of this system is also presented.
