Performance analysis of massive multiple input multiple output for high speed railway
This paper analytically reviews the performance of massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system for communication in highly mobility scenarios like high speed Railways. As popularity of high speed train increasing day by day, high data rate wireless communication system for high speed train is extremely required. 5G wireless communication systems must be designed to meet the requirement of high speed broadband services at speed of around 500 km/h, which is the expected speed achievable by HSR systems, at a data rate of 180 Mbps or higher. Significant challenges of high mobility communications are fast time-varying fading, channel estimation errors, doppler diversity, carrier frequency offset, inter carrier interference, high penetration loss and fast and frequent handovers. Therefore, crucial requirement to design high mobility communication channel models or systems prevails. Recently, massive MIMO techniques have been proposed to significantly improve the performance of wireless networks for upcoming 5G technology. Massive MIMO provide high throughput and high energy efficiency in wireless communication channel. In this paper, key findings, challenges and requirements to provide high speed wireless communication onboard the high speed train is pointed out after thorough literature review. In last, future research scope to bridge the research gap by designing efficient channel model by using massive MIMO and other optimization method is mentioned
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Assisted High-Speed Train Communications: Coverage Performance Analysis and Placement Optimization
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) emerges as an efficient and
promising technology for the next wireless generation networks and has
attracted a lot of attention owing to the capability of extending wireless
coverage by reflecting signals toward targeted receivers. In this paper, we
consider a RIS-assisted high-speed train (HST) communication system to enhance
wireless coverage and improve coverage probability. First, coverage performance
of the downlink single-input-single-output system is investigated, and the
closed-form expression of coverage probability is derived. Moreover, travel
distance maximization problem is formulated to facilitate RIS discrete phase
design and RIS placement optimization, which is subject to coverage probability
constraint. Simulation results validate that better coverage performance and
higher travel distance can be achieved with deployment of RIS. The impacts of
some key system parameters including transmission power, signal-to-noise ratio
threshold, number of RIS elements, number of RIS quantization bits, horizontal
distance between base station and RIS, and speed of HST on system performance
are investigated. In addition, it is found that RIS can well improve coverage
probability with limited power consumption for HST communications.Comment: 14 figures, accepted by IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technolog
RIS-assisted Scheduling for High-Speed Railway Secure Communications
With the rapid development of high-speed railway systems and railway wireless
communication, the application of ultra-wideband millimeter wave band is an
inevitable trend. However, the millimeter wave channel has large propagation
loss and is easy to be blocked. Moreover, there are many problems such as
eavesdropping between the base station (BS) and the train. As an emerging
technology, reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can achieve the effect of
passive beamforming by controlling the propagation of the incident
electromagnetic wave in the desired direction.We propose a RIS-assisted
scheduling scheme for scheduling interrupted transmission and improving quality
of service (QoS).In the propsed scheme, an RIS is deployed between the BS and
multiple mobile relays (MRs). By jointly optimizing the beamforming vector and
the discrete phase shift of the RIS, the constructive interference between
direct link signals and indirect link signals can be achieved, and the channel
capacity of eavesdroppers is guaranteed to be within a controllable range.
Finally, the purpose of maximizing the number of successfully scheduled tasks
and satisfying their QoS requirements can be practically realized. Extensive
simulations demonstrate that the proposed scheme has superior performance
regarding the number of completed tasks and the system secrecy capacity over
four baseline schemes in literature.Comment: 15 pages, 10 figures, to appear in IEEE Transactions on Vehicular

Ultra-reliable communications for industrial internet of things : design considerations and channel modeling
Factory automation is the next industrial revolution. 5G and IIoT are enabling smart factories to seamlessly create a network of wirelessly connected machines and people that can instantaneously collect, analyze, and distribute real-time data. A 5G-enabled communication network for IIOT will boost overall efficiency, launching a new era of market opportunities and economic growth. This article presents the 5G-enabled system architecture and ultra-reliable use cases in smart factories associated with automated warehouses. In particular, for URLLC-based cases, key techniques and their corresponding solutions, including diversity for high reliability, short packets for low latency, and on-the-fly channel estimation and decoding for fast receiver processing, are discussed. Then the channel modeling requirements concerning technologies and systems are also identified in industrial scenarios. Ray tracing channel simulation can meet such requirements well, and based on that, the channel characteristic analysis is presented at 28 and 60 GHz for licensed and unlicensed band frequencies to exploit the available degrees of freedom in the channels. © 2012 IEEE. **Please note that there are multiple authors for this article therefore only the name of the first 5 including Federation University Australia affiliate “Muhammad Imran” is provided in this record*
