Beam Selection and Tracking for Amplify-and-Forward Repeaters

Andreas Peter Burg, Adrian Schumacher, Ruben Merz

Mobile network operators constantly have to upgrade their cellular network to satisfy the public's hunger for increasing data capacity. However, regulatory limits regarding allowed electromagnetic field strength on existing cell sites often limit or preven ...

IEEE2022

The increase in wireless data traffic continues and is a product of several factors. First, new technologies and capabilities enable new use cases for which new products emerge. Then, with the growing user adoption over time, the data traffic is further in ...

Improving Railway Track Coverage with mmWave Bridges: A Measurement Campaign

Andreas Peter Burg, Adrian Schumacher, Ruben Merz

Bringing cellular capacity into modern trains is challenging because they act as Faraday cages. Building a radio frequency (RF) corridor along the railway tracks ensures a high signal-to-noise ratio and limits handovers. However, building such RF corridors ...

ASSOC COMPUTING MACHINERY2021

, ,

Today, a large portion of mobile data traffic is consumed behind the shielding walls of buildings or in the Faraday cage of trains. This renders cellular network coverage from outdoor cell sites difficult. Indoor small cells and distributed antennas along ...

Analyzing and Boosting the Performance of Power-Line Communication Networks

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou

Power-line communications are employed in home networking to provide easy and high-throughput connectivity. IEEE 1901, the MAC protocol for power-line networks, employs a CSMA/CA protocol similar to that of 802.11, but is substantially more complex, which ...

Distributed Rate Allocation in Inter-Session Network Coding

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos, Eirina Bourtsoulatze

In this work, we propose a distributed rate allocation algorithm that minimizes the average decoding delay for multimedia clients in inter-session network coding systems. We consider a scenario where the users are organized in a mesh network and each user ...

Spatial Degrees of Freedom of Large Distributed MIMO Systems and Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Olivier Lévêque

We consider a large distributed MIMO system where wireless users with single transmit and receive antenna cooperate in clusters to form distributed transmit and receive antenna arrays. We characterize how the capacity of the distributed MIMO transmission s ...
