Abstract
This contribution studies the spatio-temporal availability of satellite links inside typical indoor environments. The spatio-temporal satellite-to-indoor channels are obtained by a 3D ray tracing engine and by a geometry-based channel modeling tool. In this paper the temporal fluctuations of the channels have been modeled based on satellite-to-indoor measurements. Here the performance of single as well as multiple receive antennas with different polarimetric radiation patterns are compared for different satellite elevation angles. The results show that additional antennas placed at the receiver reduce both the spatial and temporal variability of the received power, leading to a significant reduction in transmit power necessary for the same target availability.
