Angle-Resolved THz Channel Measurements at 300 GHz in an Outdoor Environment

This paper describes angle-resolved channel measurements at 300 GHz, which were performed in an outdoor environment. An advanced time domain channel sounder and a sounding sequence with a measurement bandwidth of 2 GHz were used in the experiment. The experiment's objective was to obtain channel parameters such as channel impulse response, path gain, delay and angular spread. The measurement campaign can be regarded as a micro urban scenario and was carried out in a parking lot. The analysis of the collected data shows that the previously mentioned channel parameters can be acquired for receiver-transmitter distances up to over 30 m in the 300 GHz with a line-of-sight assured. Further, obstructed line-of-sight transmission was also accomplished.
