Field Experiments of 28 GHz Band 5G System at Indoor Train Station Platform

Recently, a fifth-generation cellular system (5G) is widely expected to provide plenty of wireless network resources (i.e., broadband capacity). In this paper, to validate 5G system performances, such as physical-layer and TCP-layer throughputs, we carry out a field trial at an actual indoor train s...

Summary:Recently, a fifth-generation cellular system (5G) is widely expected to provide plenty of wireless network resources (i.e., broadband capacity). In this paper, to validate 5G system performances, such as physical-layer and TCP-layer throughputs, we carry out a field trial at an actual indoor train station, named Haneda International Airport Terminal Station. In the field trial, we deploy the prototype 5G system (Central Unit, Distribution Unit, Radio Unit and 5G UE (tablet)) on the train station platform and evaluate mobile 5G downlink throughputs. Through the actual measurements, the results confirm that the prototype 5G system can achieve mobile broadband capacity (more than 1 Gbps) even when the UE is located anywhere at the indoor train station platform.
