Abstract :
Radio propagation experiments have been conducted to analyze the need of fading mitigation techniques in indoor scenarios at 40 GHz and 60 GHz. Results show that, for mobile terminals with omnidirectional antennas, some kind of fading mitigation technique could be necessary, while for fixed terminals using a directive antenna, no fast fading could be appreciated. It has also been found that fading depth is more severe at 40 GHz than at 60 GHz.
