We developed a portable and traceable artifact to verify the millimeter-wave-frequency channel sounders (CSs) under static conditions. It is designed to create several multipath profiles with one direct path and up to two multipath components (MPCs) to be used during the verification of a CS. The verification artifact shows that the CS we tested measures extra MPCs possibly due to internal reflections in the CS. While these differences are not likely to significantly change most of the channel metrics, they do indicate nonidealities in the CS that might need to be addressed depending on the application.
