Dataset Overview

This dataset was collected by the Radio Signal Processing Laboratory at Niigata University as part of outdoor channel measurement campaigns in urban macro-cell and micro-cell environments. Three campaigns (R1, R3, R6) were conducted at different frequency bands and locations in Niigata City, Japan.

The channel sounder employs a low-cost COTS beamforming RF transceiver capable of fast double-directional full-azimuth sweep, providing complete spatial channel characterization at each measurement point. The dataset includes raw channel transfer functions, path loss values, and LoS/NLoS classification labels.
