Abstract(s)
Wireless communications for the next mobile generation, the 5G, are set to increase
both throughput and reliability than what is currently seen in mobile systems. These
are set to be able to cope with the increase in mobile subscribers that is bound to occur
in the next years and with the increasing demand in data rates and lower latency for
immediate access to high-volume data.
Therefore, this dissertation describes a characterization of a full end-to-end 5G
testbed at 60 GHz capable of transmitting up to 1 Gbps. This characterization will
evaluate the current state of the art of 60 GHz commercial front-end devices and
compare it to a custom solution. This characterization evaluates both performance
and Radio Frequency (RF) impairments. Furthermore, the baseband system is also
evaluated in performance and signal impairments.
To conclude the performance evaluation of the commercial device, a real-world
scenario was drawn and tested where this emulates an Augmented Reality (AR) wireless
device and evaluates the feasibility of such system on a classroom environment. To scale
this work and improve signal reliability, a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO)
Alamouti transmission and receiver diversity block code on System Generator was also
devised and simulated .
