The polarimetric characteristics of the signal back scattered from a building wall are studied in this paper with the aid of MIMO measurements and Ray Tracing simulation. A very simple environment with a single building amid an open area is considered to reduce complexity and better isolate the different kinds of back-scattered contributions: specular reflection, diffractions, diffuse scattering. A high degree of crosspolarization coupling, largely due to diffused scattering phenomena, is generally observed. Moreover the diffuse component represents about 30% of the total backscattered power even in such a simple topology.

Abstract
The polarimetric characteristics of the signal back scattered from a building wall are studied in this paper with the aid of MIMO measurements and Ray Tracing simulation. A very simple environment with a single building amid an open area is considered to reduce complexity and better isolate the different kinds of back-scattered contributions: specular reflection, diffractions, diffuse scattering. A high degree of crosspolarization coupling, largely due to diffused scattering phenomena, is generally observed. Moreover the diffuse component represents about 30% of the total backscattered power even in such a simple topology.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
