Millimeter-Wave Backscattering Channel Modelling for Sensing Applications in an Industrial Scenario

Year: 2026

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Joint Communication and Sensing (JCAS) and radar-based detection in industrial scenarios face harsh propagation conditions, which pose challenges for designing and evaluating radio system performance. In this work, we introduce a wideband backscattering channel measurement campaign from 18 to 40 GHz in a machine room, using a quasi-monostatic antenna setup to scan the environment. Based on the experimental data, a Ray-Tracing (RT) tool is calibrated, and the Large-Scale Parameters (LSPs) are analysed. The measured and predicted data are then used to evaluate the performance of Radio Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) applications.
