    Atmospheric and moisture absorption goes up with frequency. This reduces the coherence bandwidth as well the range. Availability is reduced significantly. The trade becomes cell size reduction which increases the need for smaller cell size and more of them per service area. There is a practical limit as frequency used goes up and it is reached quickly as a function of RF frequency. Increased transmit power and or antenna gain does not overcome this as phase coherence is lost before SNR goes below minimum detectable signal levels. Antenna cross polarization/ depolarization at the antenna also is severly degraded due to droplet size of moisture within the field of regard of the antenna array and each formed beam. Remedies are non trivial. The design trades have to address this above 10 ghz to determine feasible system designs.

    In dig. beamforming we have the RF chain after the processing, that's clear. Does that RFchain includes the FFT or IFFT? Or there just converters, filters, amplifiers,....?

    hello sir thanks to your informative videos, but i got a question here, why is in some books they say the massive mimo is the systems focus on adding a much higher number of antennas on the base station,

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  2 роки тому

      "Massive MIMO" is a very loose term. It gets used in quite a few situations. Basically any communication system where a large number of antenna elements are used at one or other end of the link (or both) gets called "massive MIMO". And there's no specific definition of "large number".

  • @mopol4400

    Hi doctor
    first thanks for all these information
    Mr i have a question witch is
    favorable propagation is when the channel responses from
    the base station to user terminals are mutually orthogonal ?
    what is mutually orthogonal?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  3 роки тому +2

      Mutually orthogonal means that all users are orthogonal to each other. Basically it means that the H matrix is invertable. This video may help: "What is Multi-User MIMO Communications (MU MIMO)?" ua-cam.com/video/0ncIWlhsu1A/v-deo.html

    Hello I have a question. In 1:25 you said that carrier freq and bandwidth are proportional & inverse proportionality of optimal radiating size. How can I understand this?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  2 роки тому +1

      It's complicated. My comment was a generalisation. Generally speaking, the lower frequencies propagate better in terrestrial communication systems, so they are more "in demand". The higher frequencies are less "in demand", and since there are fewer users, it's possible for them each to use wider bandwidths. Also it's harder to design "narrow band" band pass filters at higher carrier frequencies. To understand the relationship between the spacing of the antenna elements and the optimal energy transfer requires electromagnetic antenna theory.

    Hi Prof! As MIMO requires rich scattering environment, does it mean that narrower beams from gNB with large N to UE with small M isn’t suitable for high rank transmissions as the effective BFed channel becomes sparse such that there is insufficient scatterers around the UE to decorrelate the channel? (TX correlation is assumed less problematic considering orthogonal beams to transmit multiple layers)

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  2 роки тому

      Well, it depends on exactly what you mean by "MIMO". In the early days, "MIMO" was used to describe "spatial multiplexing", but these days it is much more general, and literally refers to any system with multiple transmit and multiple receive antennas (even if the receive antennas are each on a different user, as in MU-MIMO).

      @wumeng8619 2 роки тому

      @@iain_explains thanks a lot for your prompt reply! yes I have checked that one (and most of the others of your videos :-)) Here I meant spatial multiplexing for high rank transmission. Considering above dimension of e.g. N=32 and M=2, two beams carrying two layers respectively, would it be problematic with too large N such that the beams get too narrow yielding in the propagation channel too less scatterers around RX and making receive correlation too high for rank2 transmissions? You mentioned less "multi-path diversity", did you mean this increased correlation or frequency selectivity channel coding exploits?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  2 роки тому

      It all depends on the gain of the individual paths and their relative directions. The larger the number of antennas, the more accurately the paths can be resolved, and the more power that gets directed in those specific directions. In terms of the number of data streams (or "layers"), just because you might only have two data streams, doesn't mean you only use two of the available "paths" in the channel. The "effective beams" that get formed for each data stream can be "multi-fingered".

  • @lancecruwys2177
    @lancecruwys2177 2 роки тому

    I'm probably confused here but don't we want reduced multipath diversity as that would cause more distortion the higher it is?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  2 роки тому

      It depends on whether you can use the diversity to your advantage. If you are not using it, then it will look like distortion, and be a problem for you. But if you are doing cleaver signal processing, then you can make use of it, and it's not "distortion".
