Communications in the mmWave spectrum are gaining relevance in the last years as they are a promising candidate to cope with the increasing demand of throughput and latency in different use cases. Nowadays, several efforts have been carried out to characterize the propagation medium of these signals with the aim of designing their corresponding communication protocols accordingly, and a wide variety of both outdoor/indoor locations have already been studied. However, very few works endorse industrial scenarios, which are particularly demanding due to their stringent requirements in terms of reliability, determinism, and latency. This work aims to provide an insight of the propagation of 60 GHz mmWave signals in a typical industrial workshop in order to explore the particularities of this kind of scenario. In order to achieve this, an extensive measurement campaign has been carried out in this environment and a stochastic channel model has been proposed and validated. [-]
