Characterization of the Propagation Channel in Conference Room Scenario at 190 GHz

In the present paper we introduce unique double-directional dual-polarized measurements at 190 GHz in a conference room with the aim of characterizing propagation for channel modelling and beam-forming applications. Assisted by ray-tracing, multiple scatterers have been identified, showing a rich multi-path environment. Investigations have shown that polarization diversity increases spatial diversity and a more deterministic modelling approach in polarization is needed to avoid overestimating polarization diversity gains.
