Abstract
Recently, joint spatial-temporal signal processing has been recognized as the key to reducing the effects of the intersymbol and cochannel interference seen in very high bit-rate mobile radio communications systems. Developing hardware simulators that can simulate mobile radio propagation scenarios in time and space domains is essential for evaluating the real-time performance of spatial-temporal signal processing schemes. This paper outlines a complex baseband platform developed for spatial-temporal mobile radio channel simulations. The platform consists of a complex baseband fading/array response simulator, a digital signal processor (DSP) board, and a general-purpose parameter estimator that uses systolic array implementation of the recursive least square (RLS) algorithm. Results of experiments conducted using the developed platform are presented to confirm the proper operation of the system.
