Abstract

This paper first proposes a novel three dimensional (3-D) wideband multi-confocal ellipsoid model for wireless multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication channels. The proposed 3-D geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) describes the channel in both the azimuth direction and elevation direction, including delay, Doppler frequency, angle of departure (AoD), and angle of arrive (AoA). It can be shown that the ellipsoid model can capture the effect of the clusters more accurately than the previous elliptic-cylinder model. Using the proposed theoretical model as the reference model, the corresponding simulation model is also derived. Numerical results demonstrate that their statistical properties can match well.
