Experimental Investigation of 5G Base Station functionalities in Reverberation Chamber at Millimeter-Wave

The performance and functionalities of a commercial fifth generation base station are evaluated inside the reverberation chamber at the mmWave frequency range. The base station capability to operates in different propagation environment conditions reproduced by the reverberation chamber is investigated. Throughput, modulation code scheme and beamforming are analyzed for different real life scenarios both in uplink and downlink. Experimental results inform network operators in their evaluation of the base station operation: i) in many scenarios within a laboratory; ii) in the assessment of whether expected benefit justifies the additional costs in an operating actual network.

FDTD Full Wave Simulations of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces

This paper presents the analysis of metasurfaces, here called reconfigurable intelligent surface. The analysis is performed by numerical simulations that implement the finite-difference time-domain method. The metasurface has been modeled by metallic patches interconnected by varactor diodes. The electromagnetic source consists of randomly generated plane wave. This kind of analysis allows us to investigate the response of the metasurface when it is hit by a random source.

Near Field Optimization Algorithm for Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a type of wireless communication technology that uses a reconfigurable surface, such as a wall or building that is able to adjust its properties by an integrated optimization algorithm in order to optimize the signal propagation for a given communication scenario. As a reconfiguration algorithm the multidimensional optimization of the GNU scientific library was analyzed to evaluate the performance of the smart surface in the quality of signal reception. This analysis took place by means of electrodynamic simulations based on the finite difference time domain method. Through these simulations it was possible to observe the efficiency of the algorithm in the reconfiguration of the RIS, managing to focus the electromagnetic waves in a remarkable way towards the point of interest.

Test of 5G System in the Reverberation Chamber at mm-wave

The performance of a real fifth generation base station was studied by using a reverberation chamber as a real life propagating environment. Preliminary tests were conducted in order to define 5G base station operation conditions at mm-wave and emulated scenarios where reconfigurable intelligent surface(s) (RISs) will successively be tested. Measurements campaign was carried out under the H2020 European project RISE-6G and a collaboration program between TIM S.p.A., Nokia and Universita` Politecnica delle Marche.

Wireless Environment as a Service Enabled by Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces: The RISE-6G Perspective

The design of 6th Generation (6G) wireless networks points towards flexible connect-and-compute technologies capable to support innovative services and use cases. Targeting the 2030 horizon, 6G networks are poised to pave the way for sustainable human-centered smart societies and vertical industries, such that wireless networks will be transformed into a distributed smart connectivity infrastructure, where new terminal types are embedded in the daily environment. In this context, the RISE-6G project aims at investigating innovative solutions that capitalize on the latest advances in the emerging technology of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs), which offers dynamic and goal-oriented radio wave propagation control, enabling the concept of the wireless environment as a service. The project will focus on: i) the realistic modeling of RIS-assisted signal propagation, ii) the investigation of the fundamental limits of RIS-empowered wireless communications and sensing, and iii) the design of efficient algorithms for orchestrating networking RISs, in order to implement intelligent, sustainable, and dynamically programmable wireless environments enabling diverse services that go well beyond the 5G capabilities. RISE-6G will offer two unprecedented proof-of-concepts for realizing controlled wireless environments in near-future use cases.

On the Estimate Measurement Uncertainty of the Insertion Loss in a Reverberation Chamber Including Frequency Stirring

In this paper, it is shown an enhancement of a previous model on the measurement standard uncertainty (MU) of the insertion loss (IL) in a reverberation chamber (RC) including frequency stirring (FS). Differently from the previous model, the enhanced does not require specific conditions on the parameter to be measured. Such an enhancement is applicable for all usable measurement conditions in RCs. Moreover, a useful majorant is also shown; it is obtained under a weak condition on the coefficient of variation (CV) of the parameter to be measured. Results by measurements support the validity of the proposed enhancement and of the majorant.
