In an effort to speed 5G development, NYU Polytechnic’s wireless research center will provide its channel models and measurements for cellular propagation in the millimeter wave (mmW) band as free, open-source software.
The simulation will help product developers understand the behavior and capabilities of the mmW radio spectrum.
That is important. Until quite recently, it was not possible to use millimeter wave frequencies to support retail end user communications. For that reason, few professionals have any experience with millimeter wave behavior and propagation characteristics.
“We’re making all of our measurements and simulation code based on those measurements open, so anyone in the world could short circuit the many years it would take to wait for products or…make the measurements on their own,” said said NYU Wireless Director Theodore Rappaport.
