This paper provides an overview of the features of fifth generation (5G) wireless communication systems now being developed for use in the millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency bands. Early results and key concepts of 5G networks are presented, and the channel modeling efforts of many international groups for both licensed and unlicensed applications are described here. Propagation parameters and channel models for understanding mmWave propagation, such as line-of-sight (LOS) probabilities, large-scale path loss, and building penetration loss, as modeled by various standardization bodies, are compared over the 0.5-100 GHz range.
1
It reviews channel-modeling efforts from international groups for both licensed and unlicensed mmWave applications.
2
Models developed by various standardization bodies are compared across frequencies from 0.5 to 100 GHz.
3
Propagation parameters, including line-of-sight probabilities, large-scale path loss, and building penetration loss, are examined for mmWave communications.
4
The paper surveys emerging 5G wireless communication systems designed for millimeter-wave frequency bands.
5
The survey consolidates early 5G results and key concepts to support understanding and modeling of mmWave propagation.
