253-GHz Angular and Delay Profile Measurements in Outdoor Street Environment

Due to significant free space loss at above 200 GHz, most measurement-based propagation study in these frequency bands has been focused on directional propagation characteristics with high-gain directional horn antenna measurements. In this study we investigate measurement-based omnidirectional propagation characteristics at 253 GHz, with a bandwidth of 500 MHz, in an outdoor street environment by synthesizing omnidirectional characteristics with rotating directional horn-antenna measurements. To be specific, power delay profiles and power angular profiles are calculated, which will help understand multipath behavior characteristics in this frequency band.
