3-D Statistical Channel Model for Millimeter-Wave Outdoor Mobile Broadband Communications
This paper presents an omnidirectional spatial and temporal 3-dimensional
statistical channel model for 28 GHz dense urban non-line of sight
environments. The channel model is developed from 28 GHz ultrawideband
propagation measurements obtained with a 400 megachips per second broadband
sliding correlator channel sounder and highly directional, steerable horn
antennas in New York City. A 3GPP-like statistical channel model that is easy
to implement in software or hardware is developed from measured power delay
profiles and a synthesized method for providing absolute propagation delays
recovered from 3-D ray-tracing, as well as measured angle of departure and
angle of arrival power spectra. The extracted statistics are used to implement
a MATLAB-based statistical simulator that generates 3-D millimeter-wave
temporal and spatial channel coefficients that reproduce realistic impulse
responses of measured urban channels. The methods and model presented here can
be used for millimeter-wave system-wide simulations, and air interface design
and capacity analyses.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures, ICC 2015 (London, UK, to appear
A Novel Millimeter-Wave Channel Simulator and Applications for 5G Wireless Communications
This paper presents details and applications of a novel channel simulation
software named NYUSIM, which can be used to generate realistic temporal and
spatial channel responses to support realistic physical- and link-layer
simulations and design for fifth-generation (5G) cellular communications.
NYUSIM is built upon the statistical spatial channel model for broadband
millimeter-wave (mmWave) wireless communication systems developed by
researchers at New York University (NYU). The simulator is applicable for a
wide range of carrier frequencies (500 MHz to 100 GHz), radio frequency (RF)
bandwidths (0 to 800 MHz), antenna beamwidths (7 to 360 degrees for azimuth and
7 to 45 degrees for elevation), and operating scenarios (urban microcell, urban
macrocell, and rural macrocell), and also incorporates multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) antenna arrays at the transmitter and receiver. This
paper also provides examples to demonstrate how to use NYUSIM for analyzing
MIMO channel conditions and spectral efficiencies, which show that NYUSIM is an
alternative and more realistic channel model compared to the 3rd Generation
Partnership Project (3GPP) and other channel models for mmWave bands.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figures, in 2017 IEEE International Conference on

5G 3GPP-like Channel Models for Outdoor Urban Microcellular and Macrocellular Environments
For the development of new 5G systems to operate in bands up to 100 GHz,
there is a need for accurate radio propagation models at these bands that
currently are not addressed by existing channel models developed for bands
below 6 GHz. This document presents a preliminary overview of 5G channel models
for bands up to 100 GHz. These have been derived based on extensive measurement
and ray tracing results across a multitude of frequencies from 6 GHz to 100
GHz, and this document describes an initial 3D channel model which includes: 1)
typical deployment scenarios for urban microcells (UMi) and urban macrocells
(UMa), and 2) a baseline model for incorporating path loss, shadow fading, line
of sight probability, penetration and blockage models for the typical
scenarios. Various processing methodologies such as clustering and antenna
decoupling algorithms are also presented.Comment: To be published in 2016 IEEE 83rd Vehicular Technology Conference

Indoor wireless communications and applications
Chapter 3 addresses challenges in radio link and system design in indoor scenarios. Given the fact that most human activities take place in indoor environments, the need for supporting ubiquitous indoor data connectivity and location/tracking service becomes even more important than in the previous decades. Specific technical challenges addressed in this section are(i), modelling complex indoor radio channels for effective antenna deployment, (ii), potential of millimeter-wave (mm-wave) radios for supporting higher data rates, and (iii), feasible indoor localisation and tracking techniques, which are summarised in three dedicated sections of this chapter
