Abstract

A channel model for line-of-sight (LoS) small street microcell in dense urban areas is proposed. The scattering power distribution (SPD) in the channel seen from the receiver (Rx) based on the physical phenomenon is obtained. The coefficients of the distribution are derived by approximation to a set of urban street microcell measurement data. The azimuth-power spectrum (APS) for the proposed model is compared to those for conventional elliptical model as well as to the experimental results obtained from measurements in three different streets of a dense urban area. It is shown that the proposed model in contrast to the conventional models produces results that closely agree with the experimental results
