In this paper we study the performance of a Uniform Cylindrical Array for a 5G base station working in the mmW region. Conventional and Capon beamforming design are considered. A comparison against a base station equipped with three Uniform Planar Arrays, one per sector, is presented. Average per-user achievable rate results are provided with different system configuration in terms of network loading and number of antennas, showing that Uniform Cylindrical Array could represent an interesting solution for 5GmmW networks.

In this paper we study the performance of a Uniform Cylindrical Array for a 5G base station working in the mmW region. Conventional and Capon beamforming design are considered. A comparison against a base station equipped with three Uniform Planar Arrays, one per sector, is presented. Average per-user achievable rate results are provided with different system configuration in terms of network loading and number of antennas, showing that Uniform Cylindrical Array could represent an interesting solution for 5GmmW networks.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
