That is not always true, actually it depends on when and where you are going to measure a channel, For example in a office during a day, channel could change several times in a second. So for indoor applications a channel sounder should be as fast as possible. I can refer you to these papers

Hi Johnathan is right, If you fulfill the channel measurement in software your temporal resolution is not sufficient and you may not be able to resolve lots of paths specially for indoor applications. For more information I can refer you to Rappaport's book "Wireless Communications: Princi

Hey all, What is the best way to measure the channel for use in space-time coding schemes using an RFX2400 board? As far as I know you can only get the I and Q streams out of the USRP, and I'm not sure how you would get a set of channel coefficients. I am planning on using the conjugate of the m
