Spectral efficiency for mmWave downlink with beam misalignment in urban macro scenario

In this paper, we analyze the spectral efficiency for millimeter wave downlink with beam misalignment in urban macro scenario. For this purpose, we use a new approach based on the modified Shannon formula, which considers the propagation environment and antenna system coefficients. These factors are determined based on a multi-ellipsoidal propagation model. The obtained results show that under non-line-of-sight conditions, the appropriate selection of the antenna beam orientation may increase the spectral efficiency in relation to the direct line to a user.

Power angular spectrum versus Doppler spectrum -- Measurements and analysis

In this paper, we present an empirical verification of the method of determining the Doppler spectrum (DS) from the power angular spectrum (PAS). Measurements were made for the frequency of 3.5 GHz, under non-line-of-sight conditions in suburban areas characteristic of a university campus. In the static scenario, the measured PAS was the basis for the determination of DSs, which were compared with the DSs measured in the mobile scenario. The obtained results show that the proposed method gives some approximation to DS determined with the classic methods used so far.
