MmWave MU-MIMO for Aerial Networks
Millimeter wave offers high bandwidth for air-to-air (A2A) communication. In
this paper, we evaluate the rate performance of a multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO)
configuration where several aircraft communicate with a central hub. We
consider a hybrid subarray architecture, single path channels, and realistic
atmospheric attenuation effects. We propose a mathematical framework for the
analysis of millimeter wave (mmWave) MU-MIMO networks. Via Monte Carlo
simulation, we demonstrate that mmWave is a promising technology for delivering
gigabit connectivity in next-generation aerial networks.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted at ISWCS Special Session 7:
