Treffer: Performance Analysis of a MIMO System Under Realistic Conditions Using 3GPP Channel Model.

In recent years, the scientific community has increasingly focused on state-of-the-art techniques, such as MIMO and mmWave transmission, aimed at enhancing the performance of telecommunication channels both quantitatively and qualitatively through various approaches. These efforts often rely on channel models designed to more accurately represent real-world conditions, thereby ensuring that the results are objective and practically applicable. In the present study, we employ one of the most scientifically reliable system- level simulators, Vienna SLS Simulator, to evaluate the performance of a wireless channel that we configure based on the latest standards (3GPP TR 36.873). We take into account the well-known non-symmetrical behavior of mMIMOs, where m stands for microwave MIMOs, in wireless communication systems and analyze the resulting changes in key performance metrics including average cell throughput, average user spectral efficiency and signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). We vary specific parameters such as transmission power, antenna polarization, ratio of indoor to outdoor users, and others with the aim of validating or challenging existing scientific assumptions. Particular attention is given to studying how variations in the aforementioned factors affect channel geometry and spatial uniformity, emphasizing the role of antenna geometry, polarization and user distribution in shaping channel asymmetries in mmWave MU-MIMO systems. Overall, this study provides insights into designing more balanced and efficient wireless systems in realistic urban environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
