Path-Loss and Throughput Prediction of IEEE 802.11ad Systems

Presently, smart and connected wearable systems, such as on-body sensors and head-mounted displays, as well as other small form factor but powerful personal computers are rapidly pervading all areas of our life. Motivated by the opportunities that next-generation wearable intelligence is expected to provide, the goal of this work is to build a comprehensive understanding around some of the user-centric security and trust aspects of the emerging wearable and close-to-body wireless systems operating in mass events and under heterogeneous conditions. The paper thus intends to bring the attention of the research community to this emerging paradigm and discuss the pressing security and connectivity challenges within a popular consumer context. Our selected target scenario is that of a sports match, where wearable-equipped users may receive their preferred data over various radio access protocols. We also propose an authentication framework that allows for delivery of the desired content securely within the considered ecosystem.

“…Understanding, and subsequently modelling, the wireless channel is of crucial importance during the design, development and deployment process of all wireless communication systems, as it determines the quality of the link and hence the Quality-of-Service of the system as a whole. This is particularly important in the mm-Wave bands, where channel losses are significant [2]- [5] and accurate beam-forming/tracking is essential.…”

This paper presents the analysis and characterization of the surface scattering process for both specular and diffused components. The study is focused on the investigation of various building materials each having a different roughness, at a central frequency of 60GHz. Very large signal strength variations in first order scattered components is observed as the user moves over very short distances. This is due to the small-scale fading caused by rough surface scatterers. Furthermore, it is shown that the diffused scattering depends on the material roughness, the angle of incidence and the distance from the surface. Finally, results indicate that reflections from rough materials may suffer from high depolarization, a phenomenon that can potentially be exploited in order to improve the performance of mm-Wave systems using polarization diversity.
