【 摘 要 】

The profound knowledge of radio wave propagation is essential for the design and test of wireless communication systems especially in demanding environments and for mobile transmitters and receivers. In this article we provide an accurate description of the relevant propagation parameters for train-to-train scenarios considering typical environments such as railway stations, open field and hilly terrain with cutting. At the beginning of this contribution we shortly describe the comprehensive train-to-train measurement campaign which is the basis for all further evaluations. We treat the stationarity of the channel in time and frequency and derive power delay profiles, and the Doppler spectral densities. Furthermore, distance-variant statistics about the $k$ -factor, delay spread and Doppler frequency spread are presented. We show that these parameters change very much for different environments and distances. For all stochastic channel parameters we propose distance dependent model parameters.
