Abstract

Wireless connectivity will become an integral component of the aircraft cabin in the near future. For the planning of the reliable network a detail analysis of the coverage is required. This paper observes the coverage in an aircraft cabin for an OFDM UWB system based on the ECMA-368 standard. For this purpose, based on real measurement in an airplane cabin mock-up, a Saleh-Valenzuela channel model and a path-loss model are presented. These models are used to obtain the block error rates and the throughput in an in-cabin environment.
