Indonesia 5G Channel Model Under Foliage Effect

Abstract The performance of communications is determined by the channel, therefore knowledge of channel model of a country is important. This paper proposes (i) the fifth telecommunication generation (5G) Indonesia channel model and (ii) a framework to derive the channel model of any locations in Indonesia. We consider operating frequency of 3.3 GHz with bandwidth of 40 MHz with real-field parameters of several cities in Indonesia. We also present a theoretical outage performance evaluated for the proposed Indonesia 5G channel model validated by block error rate (BLER) performances of cyclic-prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) numerology zero with 5G complex binary phase shift keying (C-BPSK) and Polar coding scheme. Sub-optimal Polar codes are used in this research, where better performances are expected in the future. We found that the Indonesia 5G channel model has 17 paths for the case of without foliage effect and has less than 15 paths for the case of with foliage effect. The results show that foliage attenuation causes performance degradations indicated by smaller number of paths and worse theoretical outage performances. The obtained outage performances from the proposed Indonesia 5G channel model in this paper are expected to be a reference for 5G implementations in Indonesia. Abstrak Kinerja sistem komunikasi ditentukan oleh kanal, sehingga pengetahuan model kanal suatu negara menjadi penting. Makalah ini mengusulkan (i) model kanal telekomunikasi generasi ke-lima (5G) Indonesia dan (ii) kerangka kerja untuk menghitung model kanal di lokasi lain di Indonesia. Model kanal dalam makalah ini diciptakan untuk bandwidth 40 MHz pada frekuensi 3,3 GHz dengan parameter riil lapangan. Makalah ini juga menampilkan teori outage performance yang diperoleh dari model kanal 5G Indonesia, kemudian memvalidasi teori outage performance tersebut menggunakan block error rate (BLER) pada cyclic-prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) numerology zero dengan complex binary phase shift keying (C-BPSK) standard 5G dan Polar coding. Semua hasil numerik diperoleh dari simulasi komputer menggunakan parameter riil lapangan untuk alam Indonesia. Makalah ini menemukan bahwa kanal 5G Indonesia dapat dimodelkan power delay profile (PDP) dengan 17 path untuk kanal tanpa efek dedaunan dan kurang dari 15 path untuk kanal dengan dedaunan. Hasil tersebut menunjukkan bahwa redaman daun menyebabkan penurunan kinerja, yang ditandai dengan penurunan jumlah path dan memburuknya outage performance. Kurva outage performance yang diperoleh dari model kanal 5G Indonesia diharapkan menjadi referensi untuk implementasi sistem 5G di Indonesia dalam pengembangan 5G di Indonesia secara optimal, terutama untuk lokasi yang memiliki dedaunan lebat

A Novel Multiple-Output DUSTF Coding on High Mobility MIMO-Wireless Communication Systems

In the future, wireless access system will operate in high data rate transmission and high mobility environment, to support private and public access. For such an environment, it is necessary to develop a system that has a higher spectrum efficiency and is able to mitigate selective fading problems. A novel multiple-output differential unitary space-time frequency (DUSTF) coding scheme is proposed to overcome those problems. The implementation of this inner coding scheme is unified with MIMO system, so that the scheme has a good spectrum efficiency. The differential space-time modulation in this proposed scheme is intended to operate in a non-coherent channel transmission scheme and to guarantee the system performance. In order to combat the selective fading problems, the multi-carrier space frequency scheme is utilized in the proposed scheme. In general, simulation result shows that the MIMO wireless system with the multiple-output DUSTF coding scheme in a non-coherent channel transmission scheme provides a good system performance. The proposed scheme can outperforms other previously published inner coding scheme for high mobility and high SNR. The system also achieves a good channel capacity

Optimum polarization configuration of planar circular patch MIMO antenna

Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is a key technology that plays an important role in achieving the 5G requirement due to its capability to increase channel capacity. However, the increase of channel capacity is influenced by several aspects such as mutual coupling. Many methods are done to decrease the mutual coupling effect such as polarization arrangement of the MIMO antennas. This study on the polarization arrangement of a circular patch MIMO antenna at 3.5 GHz was performed. Four elements of the MIMO antenna are arranged with several polarization configurations both in Co-Polarization and Cross-Polarization. Both simulation and measurement results showed that MIMO with Co-Polarization has a slightly wider bandwidth equal to 295.25 MHz compared to Cross-Polarization with a bandwidth of 274.63 MHz, due to better return loss performed by the former. However, from the mutual coupling perspective, it is observed that MIMO with Cross-Polarization can reduce the mutual coupling from -17.6676dB into -22.462 dB compared to Co-Polarization with the same element distance.Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) merupakan teknologi kunci yang memiliki peran penting dalam pencapaian kebutuhan jaringan 5G karena kemampuannya untuk meningkatkan kapasitas kanal.

Empat elemen MIMO disusun dengan beberapa konfigurasi polarisasi yaitu Co-Polarization dan Cross-Polarization. Hasil simulasi dan pengukuran menunjukan bahwa MIMO dengan Co-Polarization memiliki pita yang lebih lebar sebesar 295.25 MHz dibandingkan dengan Cross-Polarization dengan lebar pita hanya 274.63 MHz, karena return loss yang lebih baik pada Co-Polarization. Akan tetapi, dari perspektif mutual couping, dapat diamati bahwa MIMO dengan Cross-Polarization dapat mengurangi mutual coupling dari -17.667 dB ke -22.462 dB dibandingkan dengan Co-Polarization dengan jarak elemen yang sam

A Combined User-order and Chunk-order Algorithm to Minimize The Average BER for Chunk Allocation in SC-FDMA Systems

A Chunk by chunk-based allocation is an emerging subcarrier allocation in Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) due to its low complexity. In this paper, a combined user-order  and chunk-order allocation for solving chunk allocation problem which minimizes the average BER of all users while improving the throughput in SC-FDMA uplink is proposed. The subcarrier grouping into a chunk of all users on both-order allocations are performed by averaging the BER of a contiguous subcarriers within a chunk. The sequence of allocation is according to the average of users’ BER on user-order allocation and the average of chunks’ BER on chunk-order allocation. The best allocation is determined by choosing one of both-order allocations which provides the smaller BER systems. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm can outperform the previous algorithms in term of  average BER and throughput without increase the time complexity.

Performance Analysis of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Multi-Carrier Code-Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) Combined with Quasi-Orthogonal Space Time Block Coding (QO-STBC) in Rayleigh Fading Channel

The need for a communication system with a higher data rate and mobility grows along with information and communication technology development. Combining MC-CDMA with the MIMO system and supporting the system with a good transmit diversity technique is a promising idea to provide the needed communication system, especially in high mobility conditions. MC-CDMA can support ubiquitous communications without affecting the achievable BER and is more capable of high-speed mobility. It integrates the benefit of both OFDM and CDMA. On the other hand, QO-STBC increases the bit rate without using additional bandwidth to transmit diversity in the MIMO system. So, this study proposed a system combining the MIMO MC-CDMA system with QO-STBC. The proposed system is investigated under high mobility conditions to see the system's performance. The simulation results show that our system performs better than the MC-CDMA STBC system and the QOSTBC system but not better than the MC-CDMA multilevel coding scheme. To reach the value of BER 10−3, MC-CDMA multilevel Coding requires less power, around 5 dB, than the proposed system

Selective Green Device Discovery for Device-to-Device Communication

The D2D communication is expected to improve devices’ energy-efficiency, which has become a major requirement of the future wireless network. Before the D2D communication can be performed, the device discovery between devices must be done. The previous works usually only assumed one mode of device discovery, i.e. either use network-assisted (with network supervision) or independent (without network supervision) device. Therefore, we propose a selective device discovery for device-to-device (D2D) communication that can utilize both device discovery modes and maintain devices’ energy-efficiency. Different from previous works, our proposed method selects the best device discovery mode to get the best energy-efficiency. Moreover, to further improve the energy-efficiency, our proposed method also deployed in D2D cluster with multiple cluster heads. The proposed method selects the most suitable mode using thresholds (cluster energy consumption and new device acceptance) and cluster energy expectation. Our experiment result indicates that the proposed method provides lowest energy consumption per new accepted device while compared with schemes with full network-assisted and independent device discovery in low numbers of new device arrival (for the number of new devices arrival = 1 ~ 3)

Vegetation classification algorithm using convolutional neural network ResNet50 for vegetation mapping in Bandung district area

Bandung District is one of crop provider for West Java Province. About 31.158,22 ha is used for crop. However, some of them are not maintained well due to lack of vegetation map information. Local authority has tried to map the vegetation in their area by using free license satellite images, and aerial images from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Despite both images being able to provide large plantation area images, both are unable to classify the vegetation type in those images. Telkom University with Bandung Agriculture Regional Office (Dinas Pertanian Kabupaten Bandung) has conducted joint research to develop algorithm based on 50-layer residual neural network (ResNet50) to classify the vegetation type. The input is of this algorithm is primarily aerial images are captured from different type, height, and position of crops. Seven different ResNet50 configurations have been set and simulated to classify the crop images. The result is the configuration with resized images, employing triangular policy of cyclic learning rate with rate 1.10−7 – 1.10−4 comes out as the best setup with more than 95% accuracy and relatively low loss.Bandung District is one of crop provider for West Java Province.

Switch-Beam Vivaldi Array Antenna Based On 4x4 Butler Matrix for mmWave

It will be diffcult to use either omnidirectional or fixed beam antenna due to the high propagation losses caused by atmospheric absorption at mmWave for 5G mobile communication. Several studies have been conducted recently using butler matrix which is part of switchable antenna with some advantages such as simple, minimal cost, low loss, etc. Previous studies also have designed vivaldi array antenna at 28 GHz which provides a fix beam directional radiation pattern with narrow beam that requires real phase setting. However, there has been no research using vivaldi antenna with butler matrix, whereas it has some advantages such as wide bandwidth, high gain, high directivity, etc. This paper proposed 4x4 butler matrix integrated with vivaldi antenna by using phase shift of 45 . The design is developed on a single layer of Rogers RT5880 with dielectric constant 2.2 and thickness 0.254 mm. Best results of simulation were picked for overall system at 28 GHz, and the results of antenna as follows: the return loss was below -10 dB, the realized antennas gain was 10.2 dB with unidirectional radiation pattern and bandwidth antenna of 6 GHz that covers from 25 GHz to 31 GHz. The butler matrix average phase di erent between output port are -44.106°, 137.38°, -137.66°, 43.95° with phase err°r °f 0.894°, 2.38°, 2.66°, 1.06°. Antenna array that has been given di erent phase by butler matrix is able to shift radiation pattern on the input port successively with range of beam that can be achieved equal to 185o
