End-to-End Simulation of 5G Networks Assisted by IRS and AF Relays
End-to-End Simulation of 5G Networks Assisted by IRS and AF Relays
The high propagation and penetration loss experienced at millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies requires ultra-dense deployments of 5th generation (5G) base stations, which may be infeasible and costly for network operators. Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) has been proposed to partially address this issue, though raising concerns in terms of power …
