Characterization of the directional mobile radio channel in industrial scenarios, based on wideband propagation measurements
The object of this paper is to provide data from wideband directional channel measurements carried out at 5.2 GHz in two different industrial scenarios. The channel is characterized by the temporal, azimuthal and Doppler characteristics under LOS and non-LOS situations. The results give insight into the propagation behavior for this type of environment and reveal that the installation of wireless LANs in industrial scenarios imposes important requirements on the system design.
