Simulation of Indoor MIMO Channel Propagation Characteristics Based on the SBR Method

Abstract

In this paper, a $4\times 4$ indoor MIMO (Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output) system is simulated based on the SBR (Shooting and Bouncing Ray) method. In order to estimate the performance of MIMO system, the impacts of antenna polarization and signal frequency on propagation characteristics such as path loss, capacity, throughput are studied in both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight link.
