Because of their exclusive features, millimeter wave directive mesh networks can be considered for small cell backhaul support in urban environments. For this purpose, a network of closely spaced stations has been considered with very directive line-of-sight links operating in the 60-GHz band. An attempt is made to evaluate channel response and interference behavior in such a network, taking into account the effect of building blockage. A simple grid of building blocks is considered as the propagation environment, and wave propagation is simulated using 2.5-dimensional (2.5D) ray tracing (2D with ground effect) to calculate the received signal at different nodes in the network. The results are compared with free space predictions and used to evaluate interference at all nodes in the channel and describe certain characteristics of links, such as the delay profile and the correlation length.

The relation of multicast transmission and directional antennas is an open problem that has been debated for a long period of time. In this paper, we propose a group-aware multicast scheme of efficient multicast communication using the directional antennas for 60GHz millimeter wave wireless networks. For this purpose, we first derive the relation among beamwidth, distance between devices and most suitable data rate in the 60GHz frequency-based wireless network. In addition, for the dynamic beamforming of multicast communication, the x and y coordinates of any point with sender device at the center is generated, and a best-chosen group is deduced based on the Euclidean distance. Then the most suitable data rate for the group is obtained using the law of cosine. Using the Standard IEEE 802.11ad MAC protocol as an example, extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing multicast communication schemes with directional antennas under different situations.

본 연구에서는 60 GHz 대역의 무선 LAN(Wireless Local Area Network) 시스템에서 Balanced 구조를 갖는 증폭기나 믹서에 응용이 가능한 CPW(Coplanar Waveguide)구조의 Tandem 형 3-dB 방향성 결합기를 설계하고 제작하였다. 이는 기존의 edge-coupled 선로를 이용한 3 dB 결합기가 가지는 제작의 어려움과 방향성의 문제를 개선하기 위해 단일 결합선로를 다단으로 평행하게 연결한 구조이다. 우리는 소자의 크기와 제작의 용이함을 고려해, 결합계수가 -8.34 dB를 갖는 단일 결합선로를 2단으로 평행하게 연결한 구조를 채택하였다. 그리고 기존의 Tandem 결합기 제작에서 사용되어왔던 다층 기판 구조나 본딩 구조가 아닌 에어브리지 구조를 이용하여 단일 평면으로 쉽게 구현할 수 있도록 하였고, V-band(50 $\~$75 GHz)내에서 동작할 수 있도록 기생성분을 줄이고 소자 특성을 유지시켰다. 측정결과 V-band에서 완만한 3.5 $\~$4 dB의 결합도와 87.5$^{\circ}{\pm}1^{\circ}$ 의 위상차를, 60 GHz 에서는 30 dB 이상의 방향성을 확인하였다.

Usually, propagation attenuation of millimeter wave occurs by rainfall, snowfall, temperature, effect of pressure of air. In 60GHz wave band wireless communication network, temperature change becomes big factor of propagation loss department. Also, temperature change causes disturbance of 60GHz frequency at transceiver. In this study, we used 60GHz transceiver and found propagation loss of wireless path and operating frequency disturbance characteristics. In transceiver that there is no temperature compensated device, operating frequency of TX changed by 60.865GHz at temperature of $-5^{\circ}C$, and appeared by 60.730GHz when is $50^{\circ}C$. Therefore, operating frequency change width by temperature change are about 100MHz, greatly. But, in transceiver that there is temperature compensated device, operating frequency of TX changed by 60.830GHz at temperature of $-5^{\circ}C$, and appeared by 60.710GHz when is $50^{\circ}C$. Therefore, operating frequency change width by temperature change are about 20MHz. According to these result, we constructed between buildings examination wireless site for point to point wireless communication using 60GHz band transceivers who have do temperature compensated device, and investigated data transmission characteristics about ambient temperature change. Therefore, if use transceiver that have temperature compensated device, may overcome the wireless transmission error in 60GHz band wireless communication LAN networks despite of ambient temperature change.

최근 모바일 무선 통신의 발전으로 인해 셀 커버리지 확장을 위한 원격송신국(Remote Radio Head: RRH)이 널리 사용되고 있다. 기존의 디지털 유닛(Digital Unit: DU)과 RRH의 연결은 광케이블을 통한 유선 링크로써, 광범위한 적용에는 비용적인 제한이 있다. 본 논문에서는 밀리미터파 대역을 활용하여 유선 링크를 무선 전송으로 대체하고, 원격으로 위치된 RRH를 활용하는 셀룰러 망 시스템의 구성을 고려하였다. 밀리미터파 무선 링크 전송에 영향을 주는 요소를 분석한 후, 현재 상용화되어 있는 LTE(Long Term Evolution) 네트워크를 이용하여 기존의 유선 링크 방식과의 비교를 통해 밀리미터파 무선 링크 RRH를 활용한 방식이 전체 셀룰러 시스템의 성능을 크게 저하시키지 않음을 보임으로써 유선 링크를 대체할 수 있는 방식임을 입증한다.

Neural networks (NNs) are extensively used in applications requiring signal classification and regression analysis. In this paper, a NN based threshold selection algorithm for 60 GHz millimeter wave (MMW) time of arrival (TOA) estimation using an energy detector (ED) is proposed which is based on the skewness, kurtosis, and curl of the received energy block values. The best normalized threshold for a given signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is determined, and the influence of the integration period and channel on the performance is investigated. Results are presented which show that the proposed NN based algorithm provides superior precision and better robustness than other ED based algorithms over a wide range of SNR values. Further, it is independent of the integration period and channel model.

Allow me to introduce the development of an FM transmitter. The transmitter uses millmeter waves at the frequency of 60 GHz, and it can produce as much as 20 mW power with the band width of 1 GHz. The great feature of the FM transmitter is that it has been created by the special technique of utilizing the NRD (non radiative dielectric) waveguide. The advantage of adopting the NRD waveguide is that it can significantly reduce transmission loss. We can construct a small-size NRD guide transmitter in a simple way that has superb transmission performance. The NRD guide transmitter is very useful for CATV transmission or transmission over a wide range. In addition, the transmitter has almost the same band width as optical communication, and the data transmission speed of the transmitter is faster than that of optical communication. A transmitter with these merits would be highly appreciated as a way of ultra-highspeed communication network over short distances.
