Perry F. Wilson, Catherine A. Remley, William F. Young, Camillo A. Gentile, John M. Ladbury, Dylan F. Williams
The potential to connect people and devices anywhere and anytime is driving the development and deployment of a multitude of wireless systems. Wireless connectivity is central to advanced communication technologies, the internet of things (IoT), the smart

Millimeter-Wave Channel Measurement and Modeling: A NIST Perspective

December 7, 2018
Author(s)
Camillo A. Gentile, Peter B. Papazian, Nada T. Golmie, Catherine A. Remley, Peter G. Vouras, Jelena Senic, Jian Wang, Jack Chuang, Ruoyu Sun
The exponential increase in wireless data transmission from smartphones has led to the saturation of the sub-6-GHz bands, forcing cellular providers to migrate to the millimeter-wave (mmWave) regime for 5G. Although available channel bandwidths will grow

Millimeter-Wave Propagation Channels vs. Synthetic Beamwidth

December 7, 2018
Author(s)
Roy Sun, Camillo A. Gentile, Jelena Senic, Peter G. Vouras, Peter B. Papazian, Nada T. Golmie, Catherine A. Remley
High-gain narrow-beam antennas or beamformed antenna arrays will likely be used in millimeter- wave (mmWave) bands and 5G to mitigate the high path loss. Since many multipath components may be excluded by the narrow beam, the mmWave propagation channels

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
