A Wideband Multiple-Cluster MIMO Mobile-to-Mobile Channel Model Based on the Geometrical Street Model

In this paper, we extend the geometrical street multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) mobile-to-mobile (M2M) channel model with respect to multiple clusters of scatterers as well as to frequency selectivity. The statistical properties of the proposed reference model are studied. Analytical solutions are provided for the three-dimensional (3D) space-time cross-correlation function (CCF), the temporal autocorrelation function (ACF), the 2D space CCF, and the frequency correlation function (FCF). The correlation properties are studied under the assumption of non-isotropic scattering conditions. The proposed reference model can be used as a starting point for the derivation of a wideband MIMO M2M channel simulator. The latter is very useful for the design and analysis of future wideband MIMO M2M communication systems.
