Abstract
The use of Massive MIMO and Millimeter-wave (mmWave) networks can be beneficial for a number of Fixed Wireless Access use cases, such as Smart City (SC) Services, providing connectivity for SC infrastructure, and Fixed Wireless Access using street-level distribution and access via so-called street furniture equipment. In this paper, we present the findings from a mmWave channel measurement campaign performed in different indoor and outdoor scenarios as part of our contribution to the mmWave Network Project Group of the Telecom Infra Project see (https://telecominfraproject.com/mmwave/). Indoor scenarios included workspace environments such as office rooms, corridors, etc. whereas, outdoor scenarios included urban and suburban environments. A set of two 802.11ad TerragraphTM Channel Sounder nodes (provided by Facebook under TIP) equipped with massive MIMO antenna arrays were used as the transmitter and the receiver for the characterization of the 60GHz mmWave channel. The measurement results include path loss, received power, input and output SNR and delay spread values for each specified beam combination. Urban, suburban and indoor environments were tested in both Line of Sight (LoS) and Non-Line of Sight (N-LoS) configurations.
