Millimeter-Wave Radio SLAM: 60 GHz Indoor Sensing Dataset

SLAM dataset visualization (measurement location)

A new openly available dataset of beamformed millimeter-Wave radio measurements (at 60 GHz) has been published in IEEE Dataport

Dataset:
https://ieee-dataport.org/open-access/millimeter-wave-radio-slam-60-ghz-indoor-sensing-dataset

The dataset includes raw IQ measurements from an indoor scenario with a specific receiver (RX) trajectory and a stationary transmitter (TX), while considering beamforming at both the TX and RX side. The transmitted radio signals are based on the positioning reference signal (PRS) defined in the 5G new radio standard. Besides raw IQ-data, the dataset includes estimates of the angle-of-departure, angle-of-arrival, and time-of-flight (range) for all detected radio paths of the underlying multipath radio propagation environment. Moreover, to enable fast adoption of the data, a set of appended Matlab functions and other supporting data, such as the environment map, are provided for illustrative examples.

The dataset can be used, for example, in positioning, sensing, mapping, and/or simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) related studies, from which a concrete example is the recent publication:
