Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a comprehensive study on millimetre wave (mmWave)-based mobile hotspot network (MHN) system for high-speed train (HST) communications, including system design, field trial, channel modeling based on measurement campaign, simulation and validation. Firstly, the physical layer specification and single frequency network (SFN) which includes MHN enhanced design (MHN-E) and the overview of the MHN system is provided. Secondly, For MHN conventional (MHN-C) and MHN-E systems, the prototypes and the overall design is presented and the MHN-C prototype and demonstrations with the MHN-E prototype are analysed with the help of results of field trial which conducted at Seoul subway line 8.Thirdly, the paper presents a characteristics of a measurement campaign investigating channel which is based on rural HST environment. Lastly, the performance of the MHNE system is validated by the help of computer simulation. The simulation is done at the speed of 500 km/h under the QuaDRiGa channel model which is also known as the good method for validation of HST communication systems, since it is impractical by real testbeds now. The simulation results revealed that with a peak data rate which exceeding 5 Gbps at a speed of 500 km/h the MHN-E system can able to provide a broadband mobile wireless backhaul (MWB).
