Abstract—In this paper, based on the tapped delay line (TDL) structure, we propose a geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) for wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) mobile-tomobile (M2M) Ricean fading channels. The proposed wideband model is the first GBSM that has the ability to study the impact of the vehicular traffic density (VTD) on channel statistics for different time delays, i.e., for every tap in our model. From the proposed model, the space-time (ST) correlation function (CF) and the corresponding space-Doppler (SD) power spectral density (PSD) are derived. Excellent agreement is achieved between the theoretical Doppler PSDs and measured data, demonstrating the utility of the proposed model.
I. I NTRODUCTION In recent years, M2M communications have received increasing attention due to some new applications, such as wireless mobile ad hoc networks, relay-based cellular networks, and dedicated short range communications for intelligent transportation systems (IEEE 802.11p). Such M2M systems consider that both the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) are in motion and equipped with low elevation antennas. To practically analyze and design M2M systems, it is necessary to have reliable knowledge of the propagation channel and the corresponding realistic channel model [1]. Akki and Haber [2], [3] were the first to propose a GBSM for two-dimensional (2D) isotropic single-input single-output (SISO) M2M Rayleigh fading channels. In [4], a 2D GBSM considering only doublebounced rays was presented for non-isotropic MIMO M2M Rayleigh fading channels. In [5], the authors proposed a general 2D GBSM with both single- and double-bounced rays for non-isotropic MIMO M2M Ricean fading channels. The 2D model in [5] was further extended to a 3D model in [6]. More recently, in [7]–[9], we proposed 2D GBSMs that for the first time, have the ability to study the impact of the VTD on channel statistics. However, all the above mentioned GBSMs are narrowband M2M channel models. Most potential transmission schemes for M2M communications use relatively wide bandwidths (e.g., approximately 10 MHz for the IEEE 802.11p standard). The underlying M2M channels present frequency selectivity since the signal bandwidth is larger than the coherence bandwidth of such channels (normally around 2 MHz [10]). To the best of the authors’ knowledge, only [11] proposed a 3D GBSM for wideband MIMO M2M Ricean fading channels. However, the model cannot describe the channel statistics for different time delays, which are important for M2M channels as mentioned in [12] and [13]. Although the measurement
campaign in [10] has demonstrated that the VTD significantly affects the channel statistics for M2M channels, the impact of the VTD is not considered in the wideband model in [11]. To fill the above gap, through the application of the TDL concept, we propose a new wideband GBSM which is an extension of our model in [8] with respect to the frequencyselectivity. This wideband model comprises a two-ring model and a multiple confocal ellipses model considering both singleand double-bounced rays. By using the multiple confocal ellipses to construct a TDL structure, the proposed wideband model can investigate the channel statistics for different time delays, i.e., per-tap channel statistics. In order to take into account the impact of the VTD on channel statistics for every tap in the proposed wideband model, while retaining its complexity similar to that of our narrowband model in [8], we first distinguish between the moving and stationary scatterers, which are described by a two-ring model and a multiple confocal ellipses model, respectively. Then from the analysis of real environments of M2M communications, we generate a novel and simple approach to incorporate the impact of the VTD into every tap of our wideband model. From the proposed model, we derive the ST CF and the corresponding SD PSD. Finally, the obtained theoretical Doppler PSDs and measurement data in [13] are compared. Excellent agreement between them demonstrates the utility of the proposed model. II. A N EW W IDEBAND MIMO M2M GBSM Let us now consider a wideband MIMO M2M communication system with MT transmit and MR receive omnidirectional antenna elements. Both the Tx and Rx are equipped with low elevation antennas. Fig. 1 illustrates the geometry of the proposed GBSM, which is the combination of a tworing model and a multiple confocal ellipses model considering both single- and double-bounced rays, as well as the line-ofsight (LoS) components. Note that in Fig. 1, we used uniform linear antenna arrays with MT = MR = 2 as an example. The proposed model is applicable to MIMO systems with an arbitrary number of antenna elements. The two-ring model defines two rings of effective scatterers, one around the Tx and the other around the Rx. Suppose there are N1,1 effective scatterers around the Tx lying on a ring of radius RT and the n1,1 th (n1,1=1, ..., N1,1 ) effective scatterer is denoted by s(n1,1 ) . Similarly, assume there are N1,2 effective scatterers around the Rx lying on a ring of radius RR and the n1,2 th

(n1,2=1, ..., N1,2 ) effective scatterer is denoted by s(n1,2 ) . The multiple confocal ellipses model with the Tx and Rx located at the foci represents the TDL structure and has Nl,3 effective scatterers on the lth ellipse (i.e., lth tap), where l=1, 2, ..., L with L being the total number of ellipses or taps. The semimajor axis of the lth ellipse and the nl,3 th (nl,3=1, ..., Nl,3 ) effective scatterer are denoted by al and s(nl,3 ) , respectively. The distance between the Tx and Rx is D=2f with f denoting the half length of the distance between the two focal points of ellipses. The antenna element spacings at the Tx and Rx are designated by δT and δR , respectively. The multi-element antenna tilt angles are denoted by βT and βR . The Tx and Rx move with speeds υT and υR in directions determined by the angles of motion γT and γR , respectively. The AoA of the wave traveling from an effective scatterer s(n1,1 ) , s(n1,2 ) , (n ) (n ) and s(nl,3 ) toward the Rx are denoted by φR 1,1 , φR 1,2 , and (nl,3 ) φR , respectively. The AoD of the wave that impinges on the effective scatterer s(n1,1 ) , s(n1,2 ) , and s(nl,3 ) are designated (n ) (n ) (n ) by φT 1,1 , φT 1,2 , and φT l,3 , respectively. Note that φLoS denotes the AoA of a LoS path. The MIMO fading channel can be described by a matrix H (t)=[hpq (t, τ )]MR ×MT of size MR × MT . According to the TDL concept, the complex impulse response between the pth (p = 1, ..., MT ) Tx, Tp , and the qth (q = 1, ..., MR ) Rx, L Rq , can be expressed as hpq (t, τ )= l=1 cl hl,pq (t) δ(τ −τl ) where cl represents the gain of the lth tap, hl,pq (t) and τl denote the complex time-variant tap coefficient and the discrete propagation delay of the lth tap, respectively. From the above GBSM, the complex tap coefficient for the first tap of the Tp − Rq link is a superposition of the LoS component, singleand double-bounced components, and can be expressed as I DB i (t) + hSB (1) h1,pq (t) = hLoS 1,pq 1,pq (t) + h1,pq (t) where hLoS 1,pq (t) =

Here, c is the speed of light and I=3. The symbol Kpq designates the Ricean factor. Energy-related parameters ηSB1,i , ηDB1 and ηSBl ,3 , ηDBl ,1(2) specify how much the single-, double-bounced rays contribute to the total scattered power of the first tap and other taps, respectively. Note that I these energy-related parameters satisfy i=1 ηSB1,i+ηDB1 =1 and ηSBl ,3+ηDBl ,1+ηDBl ,2 =1. The phases ψn1,i , ψn1,1 ,n1,2 , ψnl ,3 , and ψn1,1(2) ,nl ,3 are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables with uniform distributions over [−π, π), fTmax and fRmax are the maximum Doppler frequencies with respect to the Tx and Rx, respectively. As presented in [10], the VTD significantly affects statistical properties at all taps of a wideband M2M channel. To take the impact of the VTD into account, we first distinguish between the moving scatterers (cars) around the Tx and Rx, and stationary scatterers located on the roadside, which are represented by a two-ring model and a multiple confocal ellipses model, respectively. For the first tap, the singlebounced rays are generated from the scatterers located on either of the two rings or the first ellipse, while the doublebounced rays are produced from the scatterers located on both rings. This means that the first tap contains a LoS component, a two-ring model with single- and double-bounced rays, and an ellipse model with single-bounced rays, as shown in Fig. 1. For a low VTD, the value of Kpq is large since the LoS component can bear a significant amount of power. Also, the received scattered power is mainly from waves reflected by the stationary scatterers located on the ellipse. The moving scatterers located on the two rings are sparse and thus more likely to be single-bounced, rather than double-bounced. This indicates that ηSB1,3 > max{ηSB1,1 , ηSB1,2 } > ηDB1 . For a high VTD, the value of Kpq is smaller than the one in the low VTD scenario. Also, due to the large amount of moving scatterers, the double-bounced rays of the two-ring model bear more energy than single-bounced rays of two-ring and ellipse models, i.e, ηDB1 >max{ηSB1,1 , ηSB1,2 , ηSB1,3 }. For other taps, we assume that the single-bounced rays are generated only from the scatterers located on the corresponding ellipse, while the double-bounced rays are caused by the

scatterers from the combined one ring (either of the two rings) and the corresponding ellipse, as illustrated in Fig. 1. Note that according to the TDL structure, the double-bounced rays in one tap must be smaller in distance than the single-bounced rays on the next ellipse. This is valid only if the condition max{RT , RR }≤ min{al − al−1 } is fulfilled. For many current M2M channel measurement campaigns, e.g., in [12]–[10], the resolution in delay is 100 ns. Then, the above condition can be modified as max{RT , RR } ≤ 15 m. This indicates that the maximum acceptable width of the road is 30 m, which is sufficiently large to cover most roads in reality. In other words, the proposed wideband model with the specified TDL structure is valid for different scenarios. For a low VTD, the received scattered power is mainly from waves reflected by the stationary scatterers located on the ellipse. This indicates that ηSBl,3 > max{ηDBl ,1 , ηDBl ,2 }. For a high VTD, due to the large amount of moving scatterers, the double-bounced rays from the combined one-ring and ellipse models bear more energy than the single-bounced rays of the ellipse model, i.e, min{ηDBl ,1 , ηDBl ,2 }>ηSBl,3 . From Fig. 1 and based on the application of the law of cosines in appropriate triangles and the following assumptions min{RT , RR , a−f } max{δT , δR } and Dmax{RT , RR }, we have εpq ≈ D−kp δT cos βT − kq δR cos(φLoS − βR ) εn1,1 q ≈

minor axis of the lth ellipse. Note that the AoD φT 1,i , φT l ,3 (n ) (n ) and AoA φR 1,i , φR l ,3 are independent for double-bounced rays, while are interdependent for single-bounced rays. By using the results in [8], we can express the relationships between the AoD and AoA for the single-bounced two-ring (n ) (n ) (n ) (n ) model as φR 1,1 ≈π−ΔT sin φT 1,1 and φT 1,2 ≈ΔR sin φR 1,2 with ΔT ≈ RT /D and ΔR ≈ RR /D and for the multiple (n ) (n ) confocal ellipses model as φT l,3 = arcsin[b2l sin φR l,3 /(a2l + (nl,3 ) 2 f +2al f cos φR )].
Since the numbers of effective scatterers are assumed to be infinite, i.e., N1,i , Nl ,3 →∞, the proposed model is actually a mathematical reference model and results in either Ricean PDF (the first tap) or Rayleigh PDF (other taps). For our reference (n ) (n ) (n ) model, the discrete AoD φT 1,i , φT l ,3 and AoA φR 1,i , (nl ,3 ) (1,i) φR , can be replaced by continuous random variables φT , (l ,3) (1,i) (l ,3) φT and φR , φR , respectively. Here, we use the von Δ Mises PDF defined as [14] f(φ) =exp[k cos(φ−μ)]/[2πI0 (k)] to characterize the AoA and AoD, where φ ∈ [−π, π), I0(·) is the zeroth-order modified Bessel function of the first kind, μ∈[−π, π) accounts for the mean value of the angle φ, and k (k ≥ 0) is a real-valued parameter that controls the angle spread of the angle φ. In this paper, for the angle of interest, (1,1) (1,2) i.e., the AoD φT ∈[−π, π) and AoA φR ∈[−π, π) for the (l,3) two-ring model, and the AoAs φR ∈[−π, π) for the multiple confocal ellipse model, we use appropriate parameters (μ and (1,1) (1,1) (1,2) (1,2) and kT , μR and kR , k) of the von Mises PDF as μT (l,3) (l,3) and μR and kR , respectively. III. ST CF AND SD PSD In this section, based on the proposed wideband channel model, we will derive the ST CF and the corresponding SD PSD for a non-isotropic scattering environment. Under the wide-sense stationary uncorrelated-scattering (WSSUS) condition, the correlation properties of two arbitrary channel impulse responses hpq (t, τ ) and hp q (t, τ ) of a MIMO M2M channel are completely determined by the correlation properties of hl,pq (t) and hl,p q (t) in each tap since no correlations exist between the underlying processes in different taps. Therefore, we can restrict our investigations to the
following ST CF ρhl,pq hl,p q (τ ) = E hl,pq (t) h∗l,p q(t − τ ) , where (·)∗ denotes the complex conjugate operation and E[·] designates the statistical expectation operator. Applying the corresponding von Mises distribution, trigonometric transπ exp(a sin c + b cos c)dc = formations, and the equality −π √ a2 + b2 [15], and following the similar reasoning in 2πI0 [8], we can obtain the ST CF of the LoS, single-, and doublebounced components as follows. 1) In the case of the LoS component, Kpq Kp q LoS ej2πG+j2πτ H (6) (τ ) = ρhLoS 1,pq h1,p q (Kpq + 1) (Kp q + 1) where G = P cos βT − Q cos βR and H = fTmax cos γT − fRmax cos γR with P =(p−p) δT /λ, Q=(q −q) δR /λ. 2) In terms of the single-bounce two-ring model ρ

In this section, some theoretical statistical properties of the proposed reference model will be given and some of them will be compared with the available measured data in [13]. Figs. 2(a) and (b) show the theoretical SD PSDs of the proposed M2M model for the first tap and second tap, respectively, with different VTDs (low and high) and different antenna separations (δT = δR = 0 or δT = δR = 3λ) when the Tx and Rx move in the same direction. Note that when δT = δR = 0, the SD PSDs actually reduce to Doppler PSDs. For comparison purposes, the measured Doppler PSDs taken from Figs. 4 (c) and (d) in [13] are also plotted in 2 2 where denotes convolution, WTDB (R) = 4π fT (R)max Figs. 2(a) and (b), respectively. In [13], the measurement DB 2 campaigns were performed at a carrier frequency of 5.9 GHz DT (R) =4π P (Q)fT (R)max cos βT (R) − γT (R) − on an expressway with a low VTD. The distance between (1,1(2)) (1,1(2)) j2πkT (R) fT (R)max cos γT (R)−μT (R) (19a) the Tx and Rx was approximately D = 300 m and the 2 directions of movement were γT = γR = 0 (same direction). ETDB (R) =4π P (Q)fT (R)max sin βT (R)+γT (R) − Both the Tx and Rx were equipped with one omnidirectional (1,1(2)) (1,1(2)) j2πkT (R) fT (R)max sin γT (R)− μT (R) . (19b) antenna, i.e., SISO case. Based on the measured scenarios in [13], we chose the following environment-related parameters: For the Doppler PSD in (18), the range of Doppler frequency f =5.9 GHz, f c Tmax =fRmax =570 Hz, D=300 m, a1 =160 m, is limited by |fD |≤fTmax+fRmax . (1,1) (1,2) a2 = 180 m, RT = RR = 10 m, kT = 9.6, kR = 3.6, 4) In the case of the double-bounce component for other taps (1,3) (2,3) (1,1) (1,2) kR = 11.5, kR = 11.7, μT = 21.7◦ , μR = 147.8◦ , (1,3) (2,3) ηDBl ,1(2) μR = 171.6◦ , and μR = 177.6◦ . Using an optimization S DB1(2) DB1(2) (fD ) = (1(l ),1(3)) (l (1),3(2)) hl ,pq hl ,p q method and considering the constraints of the Ricean factor I0 kR I0 kT and energy-related parameters for different taps as mentioned
DBl ,1(2) DB DBl ,1(2) ET l ,1(2) 2 2 in Section II, we obtained the following parameters for the D cos −4π f WT DB j2πf TDB l ,1(2) l ,1(2) WT two taps with the low VTD: 1) Kpq = 3.786, ηDB1 = 0.051, W T ×2e DBl ,1(2) η SB1,1 =0.335, ηSB1,2 =0.203, and ηSB1,3 =0.411 for Fig. 2(a); WT − 4π 2 f 2 2) ηDB2,1 = ηDB2,2 = 0.121 and ηSB2,3 = 0.758 for Fig. 2(b).

The R W R 2e (20) environment-related parameters for the high VTD scenarios DBl ,1(2) (WR − 4π 2 f 2 (1,1) are the same as those for low VTD scenarios except kT =0.6 (1,2) DB DB and kR =1.3, which are related to the distribution of moving where WT l ,1(2) = 4π 2 fT2max , WR l ,1(2) = 4π 2 fR2 max scatterers (normally, the smaller values the more distributed DBl ,1(2) 2 moving scatterers, i.e., the higher VTD). The SD PSDs for DT =4π P fTmax cos (βT − γT )− high VTD shown in Figs. 2(a) and (b) were obtained with (1(l ),1(3)) (1(l ),1(3)) j2πkT (21a) the following parameters Kpq =0.156, ηDB =0.685, ηSB = fTmax cos γT −μT 1 1,1 DBl ,1(2) ηSB1,2 = 0.126, ηSB1,3 = 0.063, and ηDB2,1 = ηDB2,2 = 0.456, 2 ET =4π P fTmax sin (βT −γT )+ ηSB2,3 =0.088, respectively. Unfortunately, to the best of the (1(l ),1(3)) (1(l ),1(3)) j2πkT (21b) authors’ knowledge, no measurement results (e.g., in [12]– fTmax sin γT − μT [10]) were available regarding the impact of the high VTD DB DR l ,1(2) =4π 2 QfRmax cos (βR − γR )− (e.g., a traffic jam) on the (space-)Doppler PSD. Comparing (l (1),3(2)) (l (1),3(2)) j2πkR (21c) the theoretical SD PSDs with different VTDs in Figs. 2 (a) and fRmax cos γR−μR (b), we observe that the VTD significantly affects the results at DB ER l ,1(2) =4π 2 QfRmax sin (βR−γR )+ different taps in M2M channels. Higher VTDs result in more (l (1),3(2)) (l (1),3(2)) j2πkR . (21d) evenly distributed (space-)Doppler PSDs. Moreover, the space fRmax sin γR− μR separation results in the fluctuations on SD PSDs. For the Doppler PSD in (20), the range of Doppler freBy using the same parameters as in Figs. 2 (a) and (b), quency is limited by |fD | ≤ fTmax+fRmax . Similar to the Figs. 3 (a) and (b) depict the corresponding (space-)time CFs ST CF, the SD PSD of the channel impulse responses for the first tap and second tap, respectively. Again, the VTD

In this paper, we have proposed a wideband MIMO M2M GBSM, which has the ability to study the channel statistics at different time delays and consider the impact of the VTD on channel statistics. From the proposed model, the ST CFs and SD PSDs have been derived. Numerical results have demonstrated that the VTD has a great impact on the resulting CFs and PSDs. Finally, it has been shown that the theoretical Doppler PSDs match very well the measured data, which validates the utility of the proposed model.
