Codebook design is a key point in beam-forming which is necessary for millimetre Wave (mmWave) communication to compensate its huge free space path loss. In beam-forming codebook, the transmitter and the receiver cooperate to select the optimum pre-designed code vectors to satisfy robust, efficient, and reliable transmission link between two pairs. In our study, we propose a new codebook structure based on unique phase states. Based on the Array Factor (AF) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), the proposed codebook is compared and evaluated with the uniform weighting codebook, circular array codebook, and IEEE 802.15.3c standard codebook. The results show that the proposed codebook achieves comparable SNR and array directivity with the IEEE 802.15.3c, but higher peak and wide dynamic range of SNR and better array directivity compared with the uniform weighting and circular antenna codebooks. Thus, the proposed codebook is expected to improve signal quality and increase user throughput significantly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
