Sub-6GHz MIMO Channel Sounding Dataset

Dataset Overview

This dataset was collected by the Radio Signal Processing Laboratory at Niigata University as part of drive measurement campaigns in urban macro-cell (UMa) and micro-cell (UMi) environments in Yokohama City, Japan. Four routes (R3, R4, R5, R6) were driven across three distinct areas: Yuraku, NTTCom, and World Porters (WP).

Each drive covers 3,000 measurement points (sample period: 0.512 s) with co-located 360° panoramic photos (every 10 s, ~150 pcs per route). Valid samples are selected based on vehicle motion, TX field-of-view, and power threshold criteria.
