Scalable Modeling of Human Blockage at Millimeter-Wave: A Comprehensive Analysis of Knife-Edge Diffraction, the Uniform Theory of Diffraction, and Physical Optics Against 60 GHz Channel Measurements

December 22, 2022
Author(s)
Anmol Bhardwaj, Camillo Gentile, Jelena Senic
Human blockage at millimeter-wave frequencies is most commonly modeled through Knife-Edge Diffraction (KED) from the edges of a vertical strip. Although extensively validated through controlled laboratory experiments, the method does not scale to realistic

Challenges for 5G and Beyond

May 11, 2022
Author(s)
Jelena Senic
In this paper, we discuss some challenges for 5G-and-beyond communications systems based on our measurements conducted with millimeter-wave (mmWave) channel sounders. One study analyzes path loss at 28 GHz vs. 83 GHz and in line-of-sight conditions vs. non

Markov Multi-Beamtracking in SU-MIMO with 60 GHz Mobile Channel Measurements

December 28, 2021
Author(s)
Steve Blandino, Jelena Senic, Camillo Gentile, Derek Caudill
Beamforming training refers to the exhaustive scan over which the receiver and transmitter beams are steered along a predefined set of angles to determine the beam pairs that coincide with the dominant channel paths, for spatial multiplexing. In the

Over-The-Air Calibration of a Dual-Beam Dual-Polarized 28-GHz Phased-Array Channel Sounder

July 9, 2020
Author(s)
Sung Yun Jun, Derek Caudill, Jelena Senic, Camillo Gentile, Jack Chuang, Nada T. Golmie
This paper describes an over-the-air calibration procedure for the impulse response of a 28-GHz phased-array antenna channel sounder. The silicon-germanium (SiGe) antenna board is composed from two 8x8 planar arrays; each array can generate a distinct beam

Penetration Loss at 60 GHz for Indoor-to-Indoor and Outdoor-to-Indoor Mobile Scenarios

July 8, 2020
Author(s)
Sung Yun Jun, Derek Caudill, Jack Chuang, Peter B. Papazian, Anuraag Bodi, Camillo Gentile, Jelena Senic, Nada T. Golmie
This paper investigates the penetration loss of an office building in indoor-to-indoor and outdoor-to-indoor mobile scenarios. The measurements were collected using our 60-GHz double- directional switched-antenna channel sounder. During measurement, the

Blind Calibration of Phase Drift in Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounders

June 11, 2020
Author(s)
Jack Chuang, Jelena Senic, Chunmei Liu, Camillo Gentile, Sung Yun Jun, Derek Caudill
Millimeter-wave channel sounders are much more sensitive to phase drift than their microwave counterparts by virtue of shorter wavelength. This matters when coherently phasing (electronic or mechanical) antenna scans collected over seconds, minutes, or

Methodology for Multipath-Component Tracking in Millimeter-Wave Channel Modeling

March 1, 2019
Author(s)
Chiehping Lai, Roy Sun, Camillo Gentile, Peter B. Papazian, Jian Wang, Jelena Senic
In this paper, we describe an extensive channel-measurement campaign - including 325 unique transmitter-receiver configurations - conducted in a lecture room with our 3D double- directional 60-GHz channel sounder. The receiver was mounted on a mobile robot

Portable Verification Artifact for Millimeter-Wave-Frequency Channel Sounders

March 1, 2019
Author(s)
Jos N. Dortmans, Jeanne Quimby, Kate Remley, Dylan Williams, Jelena Senic, Roy Sun, Peter B. Papazian
We develop a portable artifact for the conducted verification of millimeter-wave-frequency channel sounders. The artifact is first characterized with a vector network analyzer, providing a high-dynamic range, traceable measurement and complete uncertainty

Quasi-Deterministic-Channel-Propagation Model for a Data Center at 60 GHz

April 30, 2018
Author(s)
Camillo Gentile, Peter B. Papazian, Roy Sun, Jelena Senic, Jian Wang
We describe a measurement campaign conducted in a data center, a unique environment in which transceivers are positioned above the server racks. A total of 80 channel acquisitions, including small-scale measurements, were recorded using our 3D double

Angle- and Delay-Dispersion Characteristics in a Hallway and Lobby at 60 GHz

April 9, 2018
Author(s)
Roy Sun, Peter B. Papazian, Jelena Senic, Camillo A. Gentile, Catherine A. Remley
In this paper, we present results from measurement data collected in a hallway and lobby up to 33 meters in line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight conditions. The data was collected using a custom double-directional 60 GHz channel sounder. By tracking the

Unsupervised Clustering for Millimeter-Wave Channel Propagation Modeling

February 11, 2018
Author(s)
Jian Wang, Camillo Gentile, Jelena Senic, Roy Sun, Peter B. Papazian
We have designed and assembled millimeter-wave channel sounders at 28, 60, and 83 GHz. They can measure the three-dimensional (azimuth and elevation) double-directional angle (angle-of- departure and angle-of-arrival) of channel multipath components as

Quasi-deterministic Model for Doppler Spread in Millimeter-wave Commmunication Systems

May 18, 2017
Author(s)
Jian Wang, Camillo Gentile, Peter B. Papazian, Jae-Kark Choi, Jelena Senic
The most salient feature differentiating millimeter-wave communication systems from their predecessors will be the steerable pencilbeam antennas at the transceivers. As opposed to conventional widebeam antennas, only a few multipath components will be

Pathloss Models for Indoor Hotspot Deployment at 83.5 GHz

December 3, 2016
Author(s)
Camillo Gentile, Jelena Senic, Peter B. Papazian, Jae-Kark Choi, Kate Remley
Conventional pathloss models are based on the received power from an omnidirectional antenna. Millimeter-wave receivers, conversely, will feature highly directional antennas that can be steered towards the angle with maximum power, exploiting their high

Calibration of Millimeter-wave Channel Sounders for Super-resolution Multipath Component Extraction

Peter B. Papazian, Jae-Kark Choi, Jelena Senic, Peter J. Jeavons, Camillo Gentile, Nada T. Golmie, Roy Sun, David R. Novotny, Kate Remley
Millimeter-wave communication systems will rely on highly directional antennas to compensate for the greater pathloss expected in their frequency bands of operation. Electronic beamforming, hence, will form a cornerstone for the technology. For the
