Synthesized-Isotropic Narrowband Channel Parameter Extraction from Angle-Resolved Wideband Channel Measurements

Angle-resolved channel sounding using antenna arrays or mechanically steered high-gain antennas is widely employed at millimeter-wave and terahertz bands. To extract antenna-independent large-scale channel parameters such as path loss, delay spread, and angular spread, the radiation-pattern effects embedded in the measured responses must be properly compensated. This paper revisits the technical challenges of path-gain calculation from angle-resolved wideband measurements, with emphasis on angular-domain power integration where the scan beams are inherently non-orthogonal and simple power summation leads to biased omni-equivalent power estimates. We first formulate the synthesized-isotropic narrowband power in a unified matrix form and introduce a beam-accumulation correction factor, including an offset-averaged variant to mitigate scalloping due to off-grid angles. The proposed framework is validated through simulations using channel models and 154~GHz corridor measurements.
