Earlier this year, VTS launched IEEE Standards Project P2982 – Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounder Verification with support from NIST, Keysight Technologies, Rohde & Schwarz and National Instruments.
When completed, the standard will recommend methods for verifying millimeter-wave and terahertz channel sounder performance for the purposes of:
- Identifying and correcting shortcomings in channel sounder performance and/or post-processing techniques or
- Giving confidence that a given set of channel measurement data is suitable for inclusion in a pooled database.
VTS members with an interest in millimeter-wave and terahertz channel sounding are invited to contribute to this effort. For more information, please contact IEEE P2982 Working Group Chair Dave Michelson or visit the IEEE P2982 WG website.
