Are mmwaves effective for 5G BS?However, the high propagation and penetration loss of mmWaves make the effective coverage of 5G BSs extremely limited. It is difficult for mmWaves to penetrate buildings in urban areas; thus, more BSs must be deployed in areas with densely distributed buildings to achieve satisfactory service coverage.
What is the effective service coverage radius of a 5G BS?In addition, we assumed that the effective service coverage radius of each 5G BS was 200 meters (Palizban et al., 2017). The service coverage and the optimal BS deployment solutions that we obtained are shown in Fig. 5, Fig. 6, respectively. Fig. 5. Optimal service coverage for different numbers of BSs in the study area. Fig. 6.
What is the coverage radii of 5G BS?Most of the service/coverage radii of 5G BSs are between 100 and 300 meters (Maccartney, Zhang, Nie, & Rappaport, 2013; Sulyman et al., 2014). In addition, the densely distributed buildings in urban areas limit the propagation and coverage of 5G signals.
Should 5G base stations be tripled?To cover the same area as traditional cellular networks (2G, 3G, and 4G), the number of 5G base stations (BSs) could be tripled (Wang et al., 2014). Furthermore, Ge, Tu, Mao, Wang, and Han, (2016) suggested that to achieve seamless coverage services, the density of 5G BSs would reach 40-50 BSs/km 2.
Can 5G BSS be deployed along roads?On the other hand, many human outdoor activities are clustered on roads or near roads. In addition, BSs deployed along roads are vital for some 5G applications, such as self-driving cars. Hence, 5G BSs can also be deployed along roads (Sakaguchi et al., 2017). This prior knowledge can be used to guide the deployment of 5G BSs.
Does 5G Los coverage affect the penetration loss of mmwaves?For many common materials, the penetration loss of mmWaves is so severe that previous studies emphasized the impact of the LOS coverage of 5G services (Palizban et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2014; Wei, Hu, Qian, & Wu, 201
