Submission doc.: IEEE /0366r0 March 2016 Takenori Sakamoto, Panasonic CorporationSlide 2 Abstract The IEEE ay group proposed the Ultra Short Range (USR) communication as one of the use cases[1]. In this presentation, we considered the communication between the ticket gate and the smart phone as an example of USR scenario and measured the channel characteristics. The purpose of this presentation is a contribution toward developing a model of USR scenario in Channel Model Document[2]. Video/audio clip, magazine, newspaper, etc. Train Station

Submission doc.: IEEE /0366r0 Measurement Methodology 2-port network analyzer in 56.28~66.84GHz was used. In the experiments, 7.43dBi antenna were used as Tx and Rx antennas. To confirm the effect of reflection, metal or non-metal plates were attached to Tx antenna and Rx antenna. Metal plate : to get basic characteristics Non-metal plate : actual product The S-parameters (S21) were measured by changing Rx antenna position.

When the non-metal plates are attached, the distribution is concentric. March 2016 Takenori Sakamoto, Panasonic CorporationSlide 8 Smart Phone

Submission doc.: IEEE /0366r0 Measured Power Delay Profile March 2016 Takenori Sakamoto, Panasonic CorporationSlide 10 The first peak of the profile is the direct ray. When the metal plates are attached, there are several peaks at nearly equal interval of about 0.7ns after the first peak. These peaks are multiple reflected rays. The multiple reflected rays show the drastic decrease at the time of about 5ns, because 7 th multiple reflected ray does not reflect from the metal plate due to its limited size at 10cm distance. So, the number of the major multiple reflected rays depends on the communication distance and the plate size. When the non-metal plates are attached, since the rays penetrate the plate, there are few multiple reflected rays.

When the metal plates were attached, due to the multiple reflected rays, low PTPR was observed.

Submission doc.: IEEE /0366r0 March 2016 Takenori Sakamoto, Panasonic CorporationSlide 20 Conclusion This work presents the experimental measurement results of USR communication with wide HPBW antenna. To confirm the effect of reflection between the bodies of the ticket gate and the smart phone, metal and non- metal plates were attached to Tx antenna and Rx antenna. The delay spread is very short for both metal plate attached antenna and non-metal plate attached antenna. Theses results of this work should be reflected in USR channel modeling.
