Design aspects of short-range millimeter-wave networks: A MAC layer perspective
Design aspects of short-range millimeter-wave networks: A MAC layer perspective
Increased density of wireless devices, ever growing demands for extremely high data rate, and spectrum scarcity at microwave bands make the millimeter-wave frequencies an important player in future wireless networks. However, millimeter-wave communication systems exhibit severe attenuation, blockage, and deafness, and may need microwave networks for coordination and fall-back support. …
