Scatterer Based Airport Surface Channel Model

Kurzfassung

Based on measurements at Munich airport and the observation of the spreading function, this paper analyzes different types of scatterers which occur in the spreading function and their temporal behavior. The scatterer analysis reveals the non-stationary character of the airport surface channel and is useful for stochastic modeling. The proposed geometry-based, stochastic channel modeling approach may be realized by either randomly placing reflecting objects based on the scatterer analysis or utilizing an appointed airport environment. The proposed channel model yields a spreading function characteristic for the apron area.
