Directive mmWave radio channel modeling in a ship hull

Abstract Wireless connectivity has been realized for multiple environments and different frequency bands. However, little research exists about mmWave communication in industrial environments. This paper presents the 60 GHz double-directional radio channel a ship hull Line-of-Sight (LOS) non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions. We performed measurements using Terragraph sounder at locations fitted LOS path loss to one-slope model. Path root-mean-square delay spread of is compared reflected with lowest loss. NLOS via this first-order modeled by calculating distance determining reflection The losses have considerable contribution signal attenuation path. models are implemented an indoor coverage prediction tool, which was extended ray launching algorithm validated comparison analytical electromagnetic solver. results show that allows high-throughput within compartment, even when no between transmitter receiver present.
