Abstract

Measurements of the indoor RF propagation channel were performed in a line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) environment at 14 GHz using a vector network analyzer based system. The root-mean square (RMS) delay spread and average path loss characteristics are examined and compared to data reported by G.J.M. Janssen and R. Prasad (1992) at 2.4, 4.75, and 11.5 GHz, as well as data reported by several authors at 900 MHz.
