Publication Open Access Diffuse-scattering-informed geometric channel modeling for THz wireless communications systems(IEEE, 2023) Azpilicueta Fernández de las Heras, Leyre; Schultze, Alper; Celaya Echarri, Mikel; Rodríguez Corbo, Fidel Alejandro; Constantinou, Costas; Shubair, Raed M.; Falcone Lanas, Francisco; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenSurpassing 100 Gbps data throughput is a key objective and an active area of research for sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks that can only be met by exploiting the TeraHertz (THz) frequency band (0.3 - 10 THz). THz channel modeling faces new challenges given the emerging relevance of scattering and molecular absorption in this frequency range as well as the lack of a reliable library of material properties. In this work, we address these challenges by measuring systematically the dielectric properties of 27 common building and office materials and reporting an in-house three-dimensional ray-launching (3D-RL) algorithm that uses the created material library and accounts for rough surface scattering and atmospheric attenuation. In order to validate the proposed algorithm, a channel sounder measurement campaign has been performed in a typical indoor environment at 300 GHz. Simulations and measurements show good agreement, demonstrating the need for modelling scattering and atmospheric absorption in the THz band. The proposed channel model approach enables scenarios at THz frequencies to be investigated by simulation, providing a relevant knowledge for the development of ultra-high-speed wireless communication systems.Publication Open Access Propagation models in vehicular communications(IEEE, 2021) Rodríguez Corbo, Fidel Alejandro; Azpilicueta Fernández de las Heras, Leyre; Celaya Echarri, Mikel; Falcone Lanas, Francisco; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de ComunicaciónIn the advent of becoming reality, the era of autonomous vehicles is closer than ever, and with it, the need for faster and reliable wireless connections. The propagation channel determines the performance limits of wireless communications, and with the aid of empirical measurements, channel modeling is the best approach to predict and recreate how signal propagation conditions may perform. To this end, many different approaches and techniques have been implemented, from specific applications to general models, considering the characteristics of the environment (geometry-based or non-geometry-based) as well as seeking high performance algorithms in order to achieve good balance between accuracy and computational cost. This paper provides an updated overview of propagation channel models for vehicular communications, beginning with some specific propagation characteristics of these complex heterogeneous environments in terms of diverse communication scenarios, different combinations of link types, antenna placement/diversity, potentially high Doppler shifts, or non-stationarity, among others. The presented channel models are classified in four categories: empirical, non-geometry-based stochastic, geometry-based stochastic, and deterministic models, following the classical approach. The features and key concepts of the different vehicular communications channel models are presented, from sub 6 GHz to millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency bands. The advantages and disadvantages of the main works in the area are discussed and compared in a comprehensive way, outlining their contributions. Finally, future critical challenges and research directions for modeling reliable vehicular communications are introduced, such as the effects of vegetation, pedestrians, common scatterers, micro-mobility or spherical wavefront, which in the context of the near future are presented as research opportunities.
