Spatial and temporal fading correlation of uniform linear antenna array in three-dimensional signal scattering

In practice, diffraction and scattering from oblique surfaces create waves that travel in three-dimensional (3-D) space and arrive at the receiver with both azimuth and elevation angles. In this paper, 3-D signal scattering is considered. Generalized analytical expressions for the spatial and tempor...

Zusammenfassung:In practice, diffraction and scattering from oblique surfaces create waves that travel in three-dimensional (3-D) space and arrive at the receiver with both azimuth and elevation angles. In this paper, 3-D signal scattering is considered. Generalized analytical expressions for the spatial and temporal signal fading correlations are derived, and numerically evaluated, for a uniform linear array (ULA) in terms of the antenna elements spacing and statistical distributions of the angles of arrival (AOAs). The results show that the effect of the elevation angle distribution on the spatial correlation values in case of vertically separated antenna elements is much more significant than that on horizontally separated antenna elements.
