Abstract
To allow 5G deployments in challenging environments and for special use cases like 5G radio positioning, authorities reserve a part of the radio spectrum for privately owned campus networks. Such deployments require a characterization of the communication channel in the specific environment to fit to application requirements. This paper presents results on a channel sounding measurement series in an industrial environment. The sounding approach, based on 5G wideband downlink test signal channel estimation, only uses widely available equipment and may serve as a template for easy but efficient channel sounding in such environments. The arriving measurement results give some insights on special challenges regarding network coverage and radio positioning in industrial environments.
