In this article, a design of planar circularly polarized slot antenna is presented. The proposed antenna has a simple structure ABSTRACT: An indoor wireless millimeter wave system with an optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal link was developed. Channel modeling for the multipath system was proposed, and the channels in a 60 GHz band were measured. Based on the model, system parameters were evaluated for various subcarrier modulations in OFDM systems. Link performance in a typical office environment under the line-of-sight channel condition and with a 30 km optical OFDM link was measured. V C 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
