On the Unilateral Approximation Condition with Linear Arrays in Near-Field NLoS Propagation
Aniol Martí, Luca Sanguinetti, Xavier Gràcia
Abstract
This paper investigates the validity of the unilateral approximation in near-field non-line-of-sight (NLoS) propagation for large-scale linear antenna arrays. Utilizing multiport communication theory, the study evaluates whether the electromagnetic interaction from the receiver back to the transmitter can be neglected. The analysis examines both discrete arrays with fixed spacing and continuous arrays with fixed aperture as the number of antennas increases. Results show the approximation is asymptotically satisfied on average for both cases. This provides a theoretical foundation for using correlated Rayleigh fading models in physically consistent next-generation wireless systems.
