On the Effect of Different Grips of Handsets on Data Rate in the Measured Channels

Abstract EN

The investigation on the achieved data rate of the cellular system considering different grips of handsets at different frequencies using measurement results of the measurement campaign—which was carried out in the city of Aalborg—is presented in this paper.

The achieved data rate of the multiple-input single-output (MISO) interference channel is investigated.

A typical propagation environment using two BSs and four handsets, like smart phones, held by four to eight different users was designed and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels in different scenarios were measured.

In this paper, two BSs and two handsets at each measurement time are considered.

The impact of the different parameters like correlation, different grips of handsets, and different long term evolution (LTE) frequency bands on the achieved data rate is investigated for different measurements.

It could be concluded that the variations in the values of data rate are weakly associated with the different grips of handsets but more correlated with different frequencies.
