Abstract

The present invention belongs to the technical field of 5G mobile communications, relates to two key technologies of millimeter wave and large-scale MIMO, and especially relates to a millimeter wave large-scale MIMO channel propagation characteristic measurement method and device. The method comprises the steps of: fixing a transmitting antenna on an antenna support on a numerical control platform, and performing shifting with a half wavelength to form a virtual large-scale array at any shape; fixing a receiving antenna on an A frame to connect with a test device; employing an electronic calibration device to perform delay and power calibration of a vector network analyzer, a high-frequency feeder and an adapter; and starting and arranging a numerical control platform system to initializethe position of the transmitting antenna, the size of an array antenna and an array element spacing, controlling the position of the antenna array element by horizontal and vertical motors at the sametime, recording each array element position, and receiving S parameters of an antenna pair, wherein the collected actually measured data can be used for channel statistical property analysis and parameter estimation. The millimeter wave large-scale MIMO channel propagation characteristic measurement method and device can be used for channel test of antenna arrays with any sizes and shapes in themillimeter wave frequency band.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of 5G mobile communication, and specifically relates to a method and a device for measuring propagation characteristics of a millimeter wave massive MIMO channel. Background technique [0002] Traditional massive MIMO (Multiple-input Multiple-output) technology uses the azimuth angle of the antenna, that is, vertical polarization or cross polarization, which is regarded as 2D MIMO. In order to further utilize MIMO technology, it is necessary to increase resources in the elevation domain, that is, use 3D MIMO to obtain multi-user signals, and distinguish multiple users in the elevation domain, thereby reducing multi-user interference and enhancing throughput. To meet the requirements of high transmission rate, high system capacity and low multi-user interference in 5G mobile communication systems, MIMO technology expands the antenna array to the 3-dimensional plane of elevation and azimuth by deploying dozens...
