The paper deals with a time varying vehicle-to-vehicle channel measurement in the 60 GHz millimeter wave (MMW) band using a unique time-domain channel sounder built from off-the-shelf components and standard measurement devices and employing Golay complementary sequences as the excitation signal. The aim of this work is to describe the sounder architecture, primary data processing technique, achievable system parameters, and preliminary measurement results. We measured the signal propagation between two passing vehicles and characterized the signal reflected by a car driving on a highway. The proper operation of the channel sounder is verified by a reference measurement performed with an MMW vector network analyzer in a rugged stationary office environment. The goal of the paper is to show the measurement capability of the sounder and its superior features like 8 GHz measuring bandwidth enabling high time resolution or good dynamic range allowing an analysis of weak multipath components.
