Clustering results of estimated MIMO double-directional channel data of a small macrocell

摘要

Using an optimized clustering approach, results of the determination of the clustering of multipaths in a wireless channel are presented. The data used were from the results of estimating the double-directional parameters of a MIMO channel sounding done in a small urban macrocell. Observations of the clustering results show that the distribution of cluster power proportion should also be taken into account when modeling clusters as unnecessary exclusion of least clusters may not represent the characteristics of clusters in the channel.
