We are experiencing the dawn of what is called the digital age. The Internet and
digital technologies are transforming our world. Wireless communication systems
constitute a basic component of the current and the future information society. The
fifth generation of communication systems, or 5G, will be, in the years to come, the
most critical building block of what is referred to as a digital society. It is expected
that 5G will be a truly converged network environment, because not only mobile
communications systems but also other wireless systems and wired networks will
coexist and use the same infrastructure.
The vision ahead is that 5G will provide virtually ubiquitous, ultra-fastbroadband,
connectivity not only to millions of individual users but also to billions of connected
objects. Therefore, 5G systems should have the capabilities to (a) serve the data-
hungry devices, for example, smartphones and tablets, providing rates of Gbps;
(b) enable machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, for example, vehicle-to-
vehicle (V2V) networks; (c) allow for interconnectivity of massive devices, for example,
sensors and e-health equipment; and (d) support a wide range of applications and
sectors. All these expectations set a wide variety of technical requirements for the
design of 5G systems, including higher peak and user data rates, extremely low
latency and response times, enhanced indoor and outdoor coverage, significantly
increased number of devices, reaching the astronomical number of 100 billion,
seamless mobility, security and privacy, increased battery lifetime, and improved
quality of service (QoS) while maintaining low operational costs.
All the predictions available in the literature lead to the conclusion that beyond
2020, wireless communication systems will be able to support more than 1000
times the traffic volume served today by the current telecommunication systems.
This extremely high traffic load is one of the major issues faced by the 5G design-
ers, manufacturers, and researchers, alike. It appears that this challenge will be
addressed by a combination of parallel techniques that will use more spectrum
more flexibly, realize higher spectral efficiency, and densify cells. Therefore, novel
techniques and paradigms should be developed to support such challenges.
In this context, this book addresses diverse key-point issues of the next-
generation wireless communication systems and attempts to identify promising
solutions. The core of the book deals with the techniques and methods belonging

to what is generally referred to as radio access network. The increased needs and the
users’ expectations from the next-generation systems have been based for long on
enabling technologies provided by the physical layer. These technologies are mainly
developed to combat signal degradations imposed by the wireless channel and to
support increased user data rates and improved QoS.
Chapter 1 presents an overview of the wave propagation and modelling of radio
channels with characteristics that vary in time and space. Then, the influence of
multipath propagation on the signal-distorting characteristics of wireless channels
and the resulting effects on digital communications are outlined. Both narrowband
and wideband channel modeling is discussed with suggestions for assessing whether
a wide-sense stationary (WSS) model is appropriate and for modeling channel pro-
cesses with nonstationary characteristics and correlated scattering. Spatial channel
characterization and MIMO channel models are reviewed and the measurement
equipment and techniques are presented. Moreover, in Chapter 2, various channel
models are compared, modeling techniques involved (stochastic, ray-tracing, etc.)
are analyzed, and the applications of the involved theory in optimizing the cell
planning procedures are demonstrated.
The millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) band has been foreseen for the development
of 5G networks. A large amount of spectral space, from 28 to 95 GHz, is available
to establish such systems providing increased data rates. Hence, the design issues
of such networks necessitate the thorough knowledge of mm-Wave propagation
characteristics. In Chapter 3, the state-of-the art channel models, derived from
the latest measurement campaigns in various propagation scenarios (indoor, out-
door, etc.) are presented. In addition, models that describe the spatial–temporal
variations of the mm-Wave channel are explained. Recent advances of MIMO
and massive MIMO technology exploitation in mm-Wave propagation are also
examined.
Chapter 4 presents the fundamental concepts and basic theoretical tools for
the qualitative analysis of fading channels. This section helps the reader to under-
stand the nature and types of fading, the basic characteristics of a wireless channel,
and the impact of fading on signal transmission. Fading mitigation techniques are
presented, and a complete classification of the existing transmit/receive diversity
techniques that exploit the spatial, frequency, time, and the polarization domains,
is also provided.
OFDM modulation and OFDM-based transmission schemes (e.g., OFDMA)
have dominated the current modern wireless standards. However, despite OFDM’s
implementation simplicity, some key weaknesses such as the need for extended
guard bands leading to reduced spectral efficiency, the increased peak-to-average
power ratio, and its inherent sensitivity to frequency offset impairments have moti-
vated in the research of alternative multicarrier or single-carrier modulation tech-
niques based on filter banks. Therefore, Chapter 5 reviews the most important
modulation and multicarrier schemes, including OFDM that have become strong
candidates for the future generations of wireless standards.
Preface ◾ ix
The 5G radio access will be built on both new radio access technologies (RATs)
and the evolved existing wireless technologies (LTE, HSPA, GSM, and WiFi).
Chapter 6 provides an overview of radio network planning techniques from 2G
to 4G. Then it describes the energy-efficient green radio network planning concept
for heterogeneous 4G wireless networks and presents a cellular layout adaptation
method.
The incorporation of MIMO transmission in the modern wireless standards has
provided a significant improvement in the achieved spectral efficiency and system
capacity. As technology moves toward 5G, the concept of MIMO has been evolved
with the definition of complex centralized schemes, such as massive MIMO, or
decentralized schemes, that is, network MIMO and coordinated multipoint trans-
mission. Moreover, alternative advanced MIMO schemes reducing the number of
required RF chains, enabling full duplex communications, and allowing the use
of compact antennas have been considered. Chapter 7 reviews the most important
trends and challenges in MIMO transmission with emphasis on their application
to 5G systems.
Alternative enabling technologies are also presented. As an example, Chapter 8
introduces the load-controlled parasitic antenna arrays (LC-PAA) that resemble
the operation of conventional antenna arrays with many elements, thus boosting
the performance of multiantenna wireless communication systems, whereas at the
same time providing cost and energy consumption savings and size reduction.
Therefore, a novel method is presented that enables one to perform arbitrary chan-
nel-dependent precoding with LC-PAAs. The possible application of this technique
in point-to-point MIMO, multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO), coordinated MIMO,
and massive MIMO setups is investigated. The design and implementation of
various types of LC-PAAs for these frequency bands are also shown.
Spatial modulation (SM) has been recently proposed as a promising transmis-
sion concept that reduces the complexity and the cost of multiple-antenna schemes.
At the same time, it guarantees high data rates, improved system performance,
and energy efficiency. Working principles of SM are presented in Chapter 9 and
the advantages and disadvantages of SM-MIMO as compared to the state-of-the-
art MIMO communications are also discussed. Various transmission techniques
for SM-MIMO, namely space shift keying (SSK), generalized space shift keying
(GSSK) and generalized spatial modulation (GSM) are also further discussed. An
analytical framework for the performance evaluation of SM-MIMO over fading
channels in terms of the average bit error probability (ABEP) is also presented.
Some MIMO transmission schemes closely related to the SM-MIMO paradigm,
that is, single RF MIMO schemes, the incremental MIMO, and the antenna subset
modulation (ASM) schemes, are briefly discussed. Moreover, several applications
of SM-MIMO for future 5G wireless communications are presented, including
MIMO implementations that exploit the massive MIMO paradigm as well as the
combination of both orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and
single carrier with SM-MIMO.

1.1 Introduction
Any communications link can be modeled as shown in Figure 1.1, the model hav-
ing three major components: (1) the source, usually referred to as the transmitter;
(2) the transmission channel; and (3) the sink, usually referred to as the receiver, or
the destination of the transmitted signals.
After final design and implementation of the transmitter, receiver, and anten-
nas (if the communication signals are to be carried via radiowave propagation), any
distortion of the transmitted waveform, s(t ), on its path from the transmitter to the
receiver comes from either noise or the physical characteristics of the radio chan-
nel. These characteristics can primarily be categorized as transmission loss, the
dispersion (or spreading) of the transmitted signal in time as a result of propagation
delays, its dispersion in frequency as a result of Doppler effects, or its dispersion in
three-dimensional space. On a static or nonvarying radio channel, which exists any
time neither the communications link antennas nor anything in the environment
of operation is moving and the physical characteristics of the environment are not
changing, such distortion can be corrected using fixed technology, including hard-
ware or software. However, when the transmission characteristics of a radio channel
are randomly varying because changes in the environment are random, the correc-
tion of distortion becomes challenging. Models, and knowledge of the parameters
thereof, for the random variations are thus needed to assess whether the correction
of distortion is needed to achieve the desired quality of service on the communica-
tion link, and if so, to determine design criteria for distortion correcting hardware
and software, and for use in simulation models to test its effectiveness. This chapter
focuses on the modeling of randomly varying radio channels, the estimation of
model parameters from radio propagation measurements, and the characteriza-
tion of measured channels based upon model parameters, which is the first step in
assessing the requirement for distortion correcting technology.
Following this introduction, this chapter has three main sections. Section 1.2
begins with a discussion of the most fundamental impairment to wireless
transmission: transmission loss in an environment where there are no reflectors,
scatterers, or obstructions. Then, the subject of multipath propagation when there
are objects in the environment of operation that can reflect, scatter, and obstruct
radiowaves is introduced and the review of a method for modeling transmission
loss in a multipath environment based on radio propagation measurements is
discussed. Next, in Section 1.3, the influence of multipath propagation on the
signal-distorting characteristics of wireless channels and resulting effects on digital
communications are outlined. This is accompanied by a review and discussion of
a classical model, applicable to the analysis of single-input-single-output systems,
for modeling randomly varying channels as a Gaussian wide-sense-stationary
process. It is followed by the general assessment of channel quality, with particu-
lar emphasis on methods by which measured channels can be classified in accor-
dance with the subject model and by which model parameters can be estimated
from measured data for use in channel modeling and simulation. Section 1.3.6
summarizes an extension from the literature of the classical model to make it
applicable for multiple-input multiple-output systems, which are envisaged as a
key to the success of 5G systems in meeting anticipated transmission capacity
requirements.
Section 1.4 focuses on the data qualification preprocessing of measured data
that is necessary for the reduction of errors in analyzing such data for the estima-
tion of model parameters. First, a very general overview of radio channel sounding
is given. A method from the literature for the reduction of noise from wideband
channel measurements is then reviewed. A discussion follows on the assessment of
measured data to determine if modeling of random variations in the time domain
using a wide-sense-stationary model is appropriate. Section 1.4.3 is a review of
modeling cumulative probability distributions based on estimates thereof from
measured data. Then, the estimation of spaced-frequency correlation functions for
randomly time varying channels is outlined, with emphasis on how results can be
used to verify conditions required for modeling variations in the frequency domain
as a wide-sense-stationary process. Section 1.4.5 is a very short note on consider-
ations regarding the assessment of whether a Gaussian model is appropriate and
whether assumptions of ergodicity are reasonable.

the power loss (most frequently referred to as propagation loss), at any frequency, as
a result of the propagation of radiowaves in free space is inversely proportional to r 2 .
A practical transmit (Tx) antenna focuses energy in specific directions such that the
ratio of power density it radiates in any direction, θ, to that which would be radiated
by an isotropic antenna, is given by its directive gain (often referred to as gain), Gt (θ).
Similarly, the ratio of power received by a receive (Rx) antenna from any direction,
θ, to the power that would be received by an isotropic antenna, is given by its gain,
Gr (θ). Associated with a receive antenna is an effective area, Ae , which can be thought
of as a capture area, over which power incident upon it can be received. This effective
area [1] is related to the gain of the antenna in accordance with the equation
Gr λ 2
Ae = (1.2)

Using Equation 1.1 and knowledge of the focusing ability of a Tx antenna, the
power density, S, incident on any surface as a result of the radiation of power, Pt , by
the Tx antenna can be computed as

where E is the magnitude of the electric field and η is the intrinsic impedance
of free space [2]. Then, using Friis equation [2], the power received through the

Figure 1.2 The difference of transmission loss between equal gain antennas at
the specified frequencies and at 2 GHz.
Note that because the effective area of the Rx antenna is dependent upon wave-
length, λ, free-space transmission loss has a direct-quadratic dependence upon λ, and
hence, an inverse-quadratic dependence upon the frequency of operation, f. The
fact that the frequency dependence of transmission loss is an antenna property
rather than a property of the propagation environment is often overlooked. If
Equation 1.5 were used to calculate the ratio of transmission loss at two differ-
ent frequencies f 1 and f 2 over a free space radio link having equal gain antennas
at the two frequencies, it is clear that this ratio would be given by ∆L = (λ 2 / λ1)2.
Figure 1.2 is a plot of this ratio for the case of f 1 = 2 GHz, which is a ratio of interest
to many in the consideration of the design of 5G systems, which are proposed for
operation above 6 GHz.
The quadratic relationship, resulting in a decreasing slope of the ratio of trans-
mission loss with respect to that at 2 GHz as frequency increases, is worth noting.

where, using Equation 1.3 and assuming single interactions, Ei = (ηPG t t / 4 πri )ρi ,

and ρi is a complex coefficient resulting from the interaction of the “ith” multipath
wave with some obstacle or surface before it is reflected, diffracted, or scattered
toward the Rx antenna. If radio path “i” is the direct path between the Tx and
Rx antennas, ρi = 1. The vector sum of the multipath waves can either enhance or
diminish received power, depending on the phases of the interfering waves at any
specific receive location. This, in turn, can modify the dependence of transmission
loss on distance, r, of what must now be referred to as average transmission loss,
from the inverse quadratic dependence appropriate for free space, and increases the
exponent to which r is raised, or decreases it, depending upon the circumstance.
In a reverberation chamber, for example, where all waves that impinge upon the
chamber walls are reflected with a reflection coefficient near unity, this exponent is
reduced, resulting in lower average transmission loss than that which would occur
in free space. This is because energy is prevented from leaving the chamber by its
walls. On a radio path between two antennas where there is one reflection point
and the angle between the direction of travel of the impinging wave and the reflect-
ing surface is small, the reflection coefficient is near unity, and if the electric field
is perpendicular to the plane containing the direction (or Poynting) vectors of both
the incident and reflected waves, there is a phase shift of π radians on reflection. In
this case, received power can diminish in proportion to r 4 in accordance with the
well-known two-ray model [2] at Tx–Rx ranges beyond a breakpoint, after which
the direct and reflected waves begin to have an inverse phase relationship and their
vector addition is therefore destructive. This distance is a function of the offset of
the antennas from the reflecting surface (i.e., antenna heights if the surface is the
earth) and the wavelength at the frequency of operation.
Multipath propagation and its effects can be exemplified by considering the
simple case, at a frequency of 2.35 GHz, of equal-height antennas in a small empty
room of dimensions 5 m long × 3.6 m wide × 4 m high, where the direct wave
from the Tx antenna, as well as reflections from the four walls, the floor, and the
ceiling are received. A simple simulation using Equation 1.6 and assuming verti-
cal quarter-wavelength monopoles with radiation patterns as in [1] at the Tx and
Rx yields a received power pattern along the centerline of the room as shown in
Figure 1.3. For this simulation, the transmit power, Pt , was set equal to −7 dBm,
transmission line losses were equal to 2.2 dB, the walls were modeled as being

ing were modeled as being made of dry concrete. Equations for the reflection coeffi-
cients and the material constants were taken from [2]. Results for the case in which
the walls and floor are perfectly conducting are also shown in Figure 1.3.
The undulations of the multipath sums as the constituent waves add with differ-
ent phase relationships as a function of the distance between the Tx and the Rx can
clearly be seen. It can also be seen that the average power of the multipath sum for
the case of perfectly reflective surfaces decreases less rapidly than the curve given
by Friis equation, leading to a model transmission loss is proportional to r raised to
an exponent that is less than 2.
