5G Cell Towers
beamforming = is a technique by which a radiator is made to transmit radio signals in a particular direction. A communication device that performs this function is called a beamformer. For example, a typical 5G small cell that does not employ beamforming during its multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission will not be able to narrowly concentrate or focus its transmit beams to a particular area.
Full duplex = a long sought after capability that allows a device to simultaneously transmit and receive across the same frequencies [3]. Full-duplex has come a long way in the past decade, particularly in sub-6 GHz transceivers, largely thanks to novel and effective active self-interference cancellation (SIC) strategies (e.g., analog and digital SIC) that can rid a desired receive signal virtually free of self-interference.
Massive MIMO system = employs an antenna array with a very large number of antennas (~ 64 – 128), which significantly enhances the throughput of the system along with simplifying the signal processing required. Massive MIMO and mmWave MIMO are considered to be the key enablers for 5G wireless networks.
small base stations = 5G small cells will be constructed in three basic sizes for indoor and outdoor use: microcells, picocells, and nanocells. The largest of the three, microcells, may be in shoebox-sized enclosures on every street corner, mounted on lampposts to give 5G service providers as much as one mile of indoor and outdoor coverage from about 2 W (+33 dBm) maximum transmit power at mmWave frequencies. Smaller and with about 0.25 W (+24 dBm) transmit power, picocells will provide short-range coverage (about 600 feet) when mounted outdoors or indoors. The smallest of the small cells, a femtocell, is for indoor use only and typically for a single user. It transmits at about +20 dBm power for a maximum coverage range of about 30 ft.
