Kronecker Modelling for Correlated Shadowing in UWB MIMO Channels

The shadowing in ultra wideband (UWB) channels may degrade the system performance significantly. Although UWB multipath channels exhibit high resolution in space and time. The large scale shadow fading were moderately correlated based on UWB indoor channel measurement. In this paper, a new modelling method for correlated shadowing with log-normal distribution in UWB multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels is proposed based on the Kronecker model and IEEE 802.15.3a channel model recommendation. Moreover, antenna selection technique with low hardware complexity is proposed for a UWB system with multiple receive or transmit antennas to mitigate its channel shadowing effect. The BER performance for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) UWB system with power based antenna selection is evaluated. Antenna selection technique is shown to be effective in mitigating the correlated shadow fading.
