论文摘要
将利用毫米波(MMWave)频段来解决对高数据速率和低潜伏期的不断增长的需求。但是,较高的频率容易限制环境中信号的传播。因此,需要高度方向的光束以增加天线增益。 MMWave频率的另一个关键问题是它们易受物理障碍阻塞的脆弱性。为此,我们研究了建模二阶影响对MMWave通道的影响的问题,特别是MMWave信号对物理阻滞剂的敏感性。关于该主题的现有作品,我们的项目重点介绍了MMWaves与多个动态阻滞剂相互作用的方案。我们的开源软件包括基于衍射的阻滞模型和与开源射频频率(RF)射线追踪软件的接口。
The millimeter wave (mmWave) band will be exploited to address the growing demand for high data rates and low latency. The higher frequencies, however, are prone to limitations on the propagation of the signal in the environment. Thus, highly directional beamforming is needed to increase the antenna gain. Another crucial problem of the mmWave frequencies is their vulnerability to blockage by physical obstacles. To this aim, we studied the problem of modeling the impact of second-order effects on mmWave channels, specifically the susceptibility of the mmWave signals to physical blockers. With respect to existing works on this topic, our project focuses on scenarios where mmWaves interact with multiple, dynamic blockers. Our open source software includes diffraction-based blockage models and interfaces directly with an open source Radio Frequency (RF) ray-tracing software.
