Abstract :
To evaluate the performance of 60 GHz frequency range wireless networks, propagation measurements have to be performed. This paper presents our millimeterwave channel sounder design based on direct sequence waveform. Delay resolution is about 17 ns and dynamic range about 40 dB. Continuous routes up to several hundred meters can be measured taking four samples per wavelength. This paper includes laboratory test results of the system.
