Abstract :
This paper deals with channel characterization in Outdoor to Indoor (021) context. Particularly, we propose an original approach using both numerical propagation predictions and measurements of angles of arrival (AOA) and power delay profile (PDP), in order to improve the deployment techniques for WiMAX-based systems with relay cooperation.
