Advanced Line-of-Sight (LOS) model for communicating devices in modern indoor environment. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One
The provision of Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) service in an indoor environment is a crucial task and the decay in signal strength issues arises especially in indoor environments. The Line-of-Sight (LOS) is a path for signal propagation that commonly impedes innumerable indoor objects damage signals and also causes signal fading.

A new approach to diffraction modelling for line-of-sight (LOS) paths [PDF]

open access: yes2015 IEEE-APS Topical Conference on Antennas and Propagation in Wireless Communications (APWC), 2015
In this paper, we present a new knife-edge diffraction method based on Bullington method for the terrestrial line-of-sight (LOS) paths. The diffraction loss of our new knife-edge diffraction method is compared with the results obtained from the Delta-Bullington method and the measurement data existing in the literature for sample fixed terrestrial ...

Closed Form Approximations for UAV Line-of-Sight Probability in Urban Environments

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
This paper presents a new approach to estimate the probability of line-of-sight (LoS) for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications. We provide lower and upper bounds on the probability of LoS in terms of what we call the first-building-LoS ...

Channel Characteristics of Dynamic Off-Body Communications at 60 GHz Under Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-LOS Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters, 2017
This letter investigates the first-order characteristics of dynamic off-body communications channels at 60 GHz. In particular, we have studied signal propagation from a chest-worn millimeter-wave transmitter as an adult male walked toward and then away from a hypothetical base station.

The Folded Normal Distribution: A New Model for the Small-Scale Fading in Line-of-Sight (LOS) Condition [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
[EN] In this paper, a novel form of the folded normal (FN) distribution has been proposed to model the small-scale fading in wireless communications. From a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) measurement campaign conducted in a lab environment with the line-of-sight (LOS) conditions at both the 60 and the 94 GHz bands, the authors obtain the ...

A Ray-Based Channel Modeling Approach for MIMO Troposcatter Beyond-Line-of-Sight (b-LoS) Communications

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Communications, 2015
Troposcatter can be used as a communication medium for beyond-Line-of-Sight (b-LoS) links. However, available troposcatter channel models do not provide comprehensive channel modeling especially at high frequencies. Therefore, the main motivation of this study is to develop a ray-based MIMO troposcatter channel model to analyze transmission-loss ...

Non-Line-of-Sight Identification Based on Unsupervised Machine Learning in Ultra Wideband Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Identification of line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation conditions is very useful in ultra wideband localization systems. In the identification, supervised machine learning is often used, but it requires exorbitant efforts to ...

LOS Signal Identification Based on Common Chord Intersection Point Position Deviation from MS in Target Localization

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Target localization has been a popular research topic in recent years since it is the basis of all kinds of location-based applications. For GNSS-denied urban or indoor environments, the localization method based on time-of-arrival (TOA) is one of the ...

Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers for TOA-Based Positioning Under Mixed Sparse LOS/NLOS Environments

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
For positioning system based on wireless sensor networks, NLOS errors are one of the main factors to degrade localization performance of an algorithm, about which lots of research results and analysis have been published in previous literatures to ...
