Remote source  plane wave. Full correlation between source
antennas.
2. Near source (across the street). Full de-correlation at edges of the
aperture dD  了R
d  source antennas spacing; D 
aperture; R- distance
Remote reflector  each reflector is a remote source. The distance
between the reflectors  d, determines the correlation between
them.
Over the roof, and around-the-wall diffraction  these are line
sources. Create a single ray in the plane of the line.
Propagation along the street (waveguide propagation). Impinges on
the wall at low grazing angle, high attenuation. Reflectors or line
diffractors across the street, generate wave impinging near normal
incidence and may be stronger.

Most contributions are LOS. Then only single bounce
counts. Others, and diffractions, are too small

along the corridor axis.

Indoor-generated transmission
 Reciprocity imples dominance of direct + 1st reflection

 Through walls to other rooms  angular filter through each
wall. However, multiple rays may have equal strength (due to
complexity of environment, e.g. corridor propagation etc.). A

 Indoors to outdoors  by reciprocity,



same as out-indoors.

Correlation analysis
LOS remote source penetrates the wall/ window as a plane wave. Full
correlation.
Edge diffraction of the window is directive. The diffraction of both
edges overlap too far to meet the de-correlation condition 了R
dD
Over-the-roof diffraction is coherent in the horizontal plane.
Around-the-corner diffraction is coherent in the vertical plane.
The outer wall/ window does not change the correlation of the
penetrating waves. However, it acts as an angular filter, limiting the
range of incidence.
Indoor reflections are attenuated. Only direct and 1 st bounce count. The
correlation of the incoming waves does not change.
13
Correlation analysis - 2
 The indoor multipath is mainly of order 1  2 (diffraction by a
close-by object may add).
 The degree of source depends on the number of angularly
separated reflection/ scattering that hit the wall with similar
strength through the wall angular filter. This may typically be
1  2.
 The MIMO degree is then
