Measurement-based Analysis of Dense Multipath Components in a Large Industrial Warehouse

This work presents a measurement-based polarimetric analysis of the specular- and dense multipath components (SMCs and DMC) in a large industrial warehouse. MIMO channel sounding measurements were carried out in a flower auction warehouse, and were processed with the RiMAX multipath estimation framework. In the analysis, we investigate the behavior of the SMCs and the DMC power as a function of both the polarization and the transmitter-receiver distance for 1507 distinct positions of the receiver. The cross-polar discrimination of the transmitted V and H polarizations were analyzed statistically for this environment, as well as the relative power ratio of the DMC, and the DMC reverberation time.
