Fig. 7 is the probability density distribution figure schematic diagram of MS on horizontal plane (a=100m wherein, D=50m), based on BS end, have directional antenna, and due to the symmetry (seeing Fig. 4) of space structure, make AOA probability density distribution figure be cut out angle non-existent two parts region, and left and right is in symmetry status.From figure, can also find, ripple reaches the φ of signal AOA distribution function in spatial model
m=φ
2there is noncontinuity feature in point, and at (0, φ
2) scope Nei Boda signal AOA probability density presents the trend of first increases and then decreases, and at (φ
2, π) in, probability density presents the trend of monotone decreasing.The probability density distribution schematic diagram of MS on perpendicular be (wherein a=100m, D=50m) as shown in Figure 8, from this figure, can find, works as β
m=0 o'clock, under omnidirectional antenna away from the scattering object of MS many than in directional antenna situation, make the reflection of electromagnetic signal and refraction probability larger, it is relatively little that ripple reaches signal AOA probability density.And be accompanied by β
mbe increased to tan
-1(b/D), time, the probability density under omni-directional antenna case and the probability density under directional antenna are tending towards overlapping.From figure, can also find, ripple reaches the β of signal AOA distribution function in spatial model

Fig. 9 is the TOA/AOA probability density distribution schematic diagram (a=100m of MS on horizontal plane, b=50m, α=60 °), because scattering region is about xoz plane symmetry, make joint probability distribution figure be dug up non-existent two panel region of delay character τ, and left and right is in symmetry status.From figure, can also find, it is at low-angle or minimal time delay τ substantially that mobile station MS receives signal

mvalue how, its energy all can concentrate on Doppler frequency near zero point.And at β
min the time of=30 °, be accompanied by the increase (being the distance increase between BS and MS) of parameter D/a, Doppler's performance number increases gradually.From this figure, can also find, be accompanied by β
mincrease, the energy that Doppler concentrates on zero point reduces gradually, this is because the section that ripple reaches signal in the vertical direction reduces gradually, and electromagnetic signal reflection probability is reduced, therefore cause Doppler's power spectrum energy to reduce, and works as β
m>=β
ttime, Doppler's power distributes and is tending towards gradually classical U Clarke model.Above-mentioned simulation result meets the research of (Nawaz) in the past, and this shows that with regard to surface modeling method provided by the invention is applicable to describe 3d space statistical channel model parameter.
Main lobe angle α and spatial parameter b/a distribute on Doppler's power of mobile station MS affects schematic diagram (a=100m, D=50m, φ as shown in figure 12
υ=90 °), when mobile station MS moving direction is vertical with LoS path, because scattering region is about xoz plane symmetry, so Doppler's power spectrum is symmetrical about frequency zero.While increasing to α=180 ° along with main lobe angle, Doppler's power spectrum is tending towards Clarke U-shaped classical model gradually.And when main lobe angle α=60 °≤180 °, when base station BS is designed with directional antenna, signal is relatively less at the multipath component in space, now the dimensional energy of Doppler's power spectrum mainly concentrates near frequency zero.In figure, also shown the impact that spatial parameter b/a distributes on Doppler's power, from figure, can also find, when b/a is larger, Doppler's power is relatively large, this is because be accompanied by the increase of parameter b/a, it is many that scattering object in scattering region becomes gradually, the reflection of electromagnetic signal and refraction probability are larger, thereby cause the energy of Doppler's power spectrum relatively large, this is consistent with result of study in the past, the channel parameter estimation result that shows this model meets theory and experience, has expanded research and the application of 3d space statistical channel model.
Figure 13 is the direction of motion φ of mobile station MS
υand spatial parameter D/a Doppler's power is distributed affect schematic diagram (a=100m, b=50m, α=60 °).Work as φ
υ=5 °, during the mobile arrival bearing of MS, Doppler's power spectrum that ripple reaches signal tilts and presents asymmetrical shape, and in the value of parameter D/a hour, Doppler's power spectrum is tilted to the right, and illustrate that Doppler frequency is born component proportion larger; And be accompanied by the increase of parameter D/a, Doppler frequency positive component proportion increases gradually, the power spectrum that makes Doppler gradually left direction tilt.Otherwise at φ
υ=175 °, when the moving direction of MS deviates from arrival bearing, with above-mentioned φ
υ=5 ° produce antipodal effect.From figure, can also find (φ when MS moves perpendicular to direct path
υ=90 °), regardless of the distance between MS and BS, the dimensional energy of Doppler's power spectrum all concentrates near frequency zero.
Figure 14, Figure 15, Figure 16, Figure 17 are respectively scattering object and are uniformly distributed down, the spatial coherence distribution schematic diagram (a=100m, b=50m, D=50m) between MIMO ULA and UCA array element (1,2).From figure, can find, spatial coherence reduces along with the increase of d/ λ or r/ λ and levels off to 0 value, and is accompanied by vertical angle beta
mincrease, the correlation between array dies down gradually.In figure, also shown main lobe angle α and the impact of spatial parameter D/a on correlation, from figure, can also find, be accompanied by reducing of main lobe angle α, the correlation between array weakens gradually; And being accompanied by the increase of distance between base station BS and MS (D/a), correlation is grow gradually.
Figure 18, Figure 19, Figure 20, Figure 21 are respectively distribution situation schematic diagram (a=100m, b=50m, D=50m, the N of MIMO ULA and UCA aerial array channel capacity
r=4, SNR=20dB).From figure, can find, at two array element distance d/ λ or r/ λ hour, the correlation between array element is larger, and channel capacity is less.Main lobe angle α and the impact of spatial parameter D/a on channel capacity in figure, have also been shown, from figure, can also find, be accompanied by reducing of main lobe angle α, the correlation between array weakens gradually, channel capacity is increased, thereby embody the superiority of directional antenna; In addition, be accompanied by the increase of distance between base station BS and MS, correlation is grow gradually, and channel capacity reduces gradually.
From illustrating above, emulation experiment numerical result and 2D and the contrast of 3D multidiameter fading channel show that the channel parameter estimation result of this model meets theory and experience, by the step provided by the invention 3D communication environment of Microcell in simulating chamber well, research and the application of 3d space statistical channel model have been expanded.The present invention can computing 3d space statistical channel model important empty time channel parameter, as ripple reaches the direction of arrival degree (AOA:Angle of Arrival) of signal on horizontal plane and perpendicular, the time of advent (TOA:Time Of Arrival), the space-time correlation of Doppler effect (DS:Doppler Shift) and arriving signal, and studied many antennas of MIMO linear array (ULA:uniform linear array) and circular array (UCA:uniform circular array) the system transmission performance under 3d space statistical channel model simultaneously.In addition, further every input parameter of research model and important relation between channel parameter when empty, from the analogous diagram of implementing to provide, can obviously find out, 3d space is provided with the capacity that directional antenna can improve space channel effectively, and, reduce the capacity that space D between BS and MS can further improve channel.The present invention provides a kind of channel modeling method comparatively exactly for 3D interior space statistical channel, thus for assessment multiple-antenna MIMO system when empty Processing Algorithm and emulation wireless communication system strong instrument is provided, there is far-reaching Research Significance.
