摘要:

无小区的广泛分布的大规模多输入多输出(MIMO)系统利用分布在大的地理区域上的无线电单元。用户设备(UE)的无线电信号由UE附近的无线电单元(RU)的子集相干地检测,并在最近的基带处理单元(BPU)处联合处理。这种架构保证了两个数量级的发射功率,在UE位置的空间聚焦以获得高可靠性,以及覆盖区域上的一致吞吐量。迄今为止,所有这些性质都从理论的角度进行了研究。据我们所知,这项工作提出了第一个经验的无线电波传播测量的形式,随时间变化的信道传递函数的线性,广泛分布的天线阵列与32个单天线RU分布在46.5米的范围内。大孔径允许对无细胞系统的传播特性进行有价值的见解。三种不同的共址和广泛分布的RU配置和它们的属性在城市环境中的时变延迟扩展,多普勒扩展,路径损耗和空间上的局部散射函数的相关性进行了分析。为了开发6G无小区大规模多输入多输出收发器算法,我们分析了诸如信道硬化、信道老化以及信号干扰噪声比(SINR)等特性。我们的经验证据支持广泛分布的无细胞系统的有前途的索赔。

英文摘要:

Cell-free widely distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems utilize radio units spread out over a large geographical area. The radio signal of a user equipment (UE) is coherently detected by a subset of radio units (RUs) in the vicinity of the UE and processed jointly at the nearest baseband processing unit (BPU). This architecture promises two orders of magnitude less transmit power, spatial focusing at the UE position for high reliability, and consistent throughput over the coverage area. All these properties have been investigated so far from a theoretical point of view. To the best of our knowledge, this work presents the first empirical radio wave propagation measurements in the form of time-variant channel transfer functions for a linear, widely distributed antenna array with 32 single antenna RUs spread out over a range of 46.5 m. The large aperture allows for valuable insights into the propagation characteristics of cell-free systems. Three different co-located and widely distributed RU configurations and their properties in an urban environment are analyzed in terms of time-variant delay-spread, Doppler spread, path loss and the correlation of the local scattering function over space. For the development of 6G cell-free massive MIMO transceiver algorithms, we analyze properties such as channel hardening, channel aging as well as the signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR). Our empirical evidence supports the promising claims for widely distributed cell-free systems.
