Indoor Localization Accuracy of Major Smartphone Location Apps

April 14, 2019
Author(s)
Nader Moayeri, Chang Li, Lu Shi
NIST carried out comprehensive testing in five large buildings to evaluate the accuracy of Fused Location Provider (FLP) Application Programming Interface (API) running on Android phones with that of Core Location Framework running on iPhones. The testing

Optimal Dynamic Spectrum Access Scheme for Utilizing White Space in LTE Systems

April 15, 2019
Author(s)
Anirudha Sahoo, Timothy Hall, Robert C. Hagwood
In this study, we design and implement an algorithm for optimal dynamic spectrum access (DSA) in a shared spectrum system where the primary user (PU) is a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system. The cumulative hazard function from survival analysis is used to

A New Perspective on an Old Problem: Scattering by a Perfect Electric Conductor

Alexey J. Yuffa, Johannes Markkanen, Qiang Sun, Evert Klaseboer, Derek Y. Chan
We explore several different singular surface integral equation formulations. These formulations are specifically designed for time-harmonic scattering by a perfect electric conductor and are obtained by choosing non-conventional boundary unknowns.

System Distortion Model for the Cross-Validation of Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounders

March 31, 2019
Author(s)
Camillo Gentile, Andreas Molisch, Jack Chuang, Anuraag Bodi, Anmol Bhardwaj, Ozgur Ozdemir, Ismail Guvenc, Zihang Cheng, Thomas Choi, Robert Mueller
Because millimeter-wave directional channel measurements are time-consuming and expensive to collect, there is considerable interest in combining measurement data obtained with different channel sounders in order to yield more comprehensive datasets. The

Interlaboratory Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounder Verification

March 30, 2019
Author(s)
Jeanne Quimby, David G. Michelson, Mustapha Bennai, Kate Remley, Joshua Kast, Alec Weiss
The channel sounder verification program within the National Institute of Standards and Technology-coordinated 5G mmWave Channel Model Alliance aims to place channel sounders on a sound metrological foundation by using well-established laboratory

Channel Characterization and Delay Optimization for Industrial Wireless Control Systems

March 4, 2019
Author(s)
Xiaolin Jiang, Zhibo Pang, Rick Candell, Dacfey Dzung, Michele Luvisotto, Carlo Fischione
Wireless communication is gaining popularity in industry for its simple deployment, mobility and low cost. Ultra low latency and high reliability requirements of mission critical industrial applications are highly demanding for wireless communication, and

Lets Keep Women in Microwaves

March 1, 2019
Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley
This is a column for the "Women in Microwaves" affinity group of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, to be published in IEEE Microwave Magazine. The column discusses the well documented effect that after ten years or so into a science

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
