Location fingerprint (LF) has been widely applied in indoor positioning. However, the existing studies on LF mostly focus on the fingerprint of WiFi below 6 GHz, bluetooth, ultra wideband (UWB), etc. The LF with millimeter-wave (mmWave) was rarely addressed. Since mmWave has the characteristics of narrow beam, fast signal attenuation and wide bandwidth, etc., the positioning error can be reduced. In this paper, an LF positioning method with mmWave is proposed, which is named as DoA-LF. Besides received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of access points (APs), the fingerprint database contains direction of arrival (DoA) information of APs, which is obtained via DoA estimation. Then the impact of the number of APs, the interval of reference points (RPs), the channel model of mmWave and the error of DoA estimation algorithm on positioning error is analyzed with Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB). Finally, the proposed DoA-LF algorithm with mmWave is verified through simulations. The simulation results have proved that mmWave can reduce the positioning error due to the fact that mmWave has larger path loss exponent and smaller variance of shadow fading compared with low frequency signals. Besides, accurate DoA estimation can reduce the positioning error.
The direction of arrival (DOA) estimation in array signal processing is an important research area. The effectiveness of the direction of arrival greatly determines the performance of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna systems. The multiple sign
Beamforming structures with fixed beam codebooks provide economical solutions for millimeter wave (mmWave) communications due to the low hardware cost. However, the training overhead to search for the optimal beamforming configuration is proportional
Multi-point detection of the full-scale environment is an important issue in autonomous driving. The state-of-the-art positioning technologies (such as RADAR and LIDAR) are incapable of real-time detection without line-of-sight. To address this issue
The millimeter wave (mmWave) band, which is a prime candidate for 5G cellular networks, seems attractive for wireless energy harvesting. This is because it will feature large antenna arrays as well as extremely dense base station (BS) deployments. Th
We introduce clustered millimeter wave networks with invoking non-orthogonal multiple access~(NOMA) techniques, where the NOMA users are modeled as Poisson cluster processes and each cluster contains a base station (BS) located at the center. To prov
