Multi-band Indoor Propagation Characterization by Measurements from 6 to 60 GHz

We introduce simultaneous multi-band ultra wideband directional measurements at 6.75 GHz, 30 GHz, and 60 GHz in an indoor environment with different visibility conditions. Large scale parameters and path-loss has been analysed for the different bands considering the propagation channel, and later the influence of the system aspects in the radio channel. We have observed that the major differences between bands are introduced by the characteristics of the targeted system.
