LTE I/Q Measurement Data Sets by AERPAW Platform for Air-to-Ground Propagation Modeling

Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been receiving significant attention due to the wide range of potential application areas. To support UAV use cases with beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) and autonomous flights,  cellular networks can provide connectivity points to UAVs and provide remote control and payload communications. However, there are limited datasets to study the coverage of cellular technologies for UAV flights at different altitudes. In these data sets, we collected raw LTE I/Q sample data sets from physical field experiments for air-to-ground channel propagation from the aerial experimentation and research platform for advanced wireless (AERPAW) platform. We adopt a standard metadata format for reproducing the results from the collected data sets.
