Abstract
This paper presents the results of widebandmeasurements of an indoor wireless radio channel at 1.8GHz. Propagation measurements were carried out in anindoor environment at the Technical University of Athens with a network analyzer. From themeasured impulse response (IR) profiles collected, meanexcess delay tau and root mean square of delay spreadtau Statistical analysis of delay spread and amplitude fading has been performed. Comparison withsimulation results extracted from SIRCIM Simulatorpackage has also been made. have beenestimated.
