The impact of base station antennas configuration on the performance of millimetre wave 5G networks (2017)
Presentation / Conference
on the performance of millimetre wave 5G networks. Presented at The Ninth International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN 2017), Milan

In this paper, two scenarios have been considered for millimetre wave base station configuration. In the first scenario, the approach of Distributed Base Station (DBS) with remote radio units (RRU) is chosen as the envisioned architecture for futur...
