“…Commonly, the large-scale channel fading is characterized by the log-distance path-loss model given by (2) where represents the path loss in decibels at separation distance , is the reference path loss at some reference distance , is the path-loss exponent and represents the shadowing component which is assumed to be a zero mean Gaussian distributed random variable with a standard deviation [11], [12]. represents the average path loss.…”

“…This effect can be minimized by using highly omnidirectional antennas. However, it is also interesting to know the path-loss characteristics experienced with highly directional channels since directional antennas are certainly required to gain sufficient link budget for the support of the envisioned high data rate services [2]. Therefore, we consider measurement and modeling results obtained with highly omnidirectional as well as with highly directive antennas.…”

Abstract-An extensive review of the statistical characterization of 60-GHz indoor radio channels is provided from a large number of published measurement and modeling results. First, the most prominent driver applications for 60 GHz are considered in order to identify those environment types that need to be characterized most urgently. Large-scale fading is addressed yielding path-loss parameter values for a generic 60-GHz indoor channel model as well as for the office environment in particular. In addition, the small-scale channel behavior is reviewed including the modeling of time-of-arrival and angle-of-arrival details and statistical parameters related to delay spread, angular spread and Doppler spread. Finally, some research directions for future channel characterization are given.

“…Therefore, 60 GHz technology has lower practical bandwidth than what is theoretically achievable. High path loss and link instability in 60 GHz technology can be alleviated using highly directional beams which can be realized using beamforming [42], [92]. Compared to RF, FSO inherently provide significantly higher bandwidth as compared to that of current RF technologies due to the large band of unregulated frequency.…”

Abstract-Data centers (DCs) is becoming increasingly an integral part of the computing infrastructures of most enterprises. Therefore, the concept of DC networks (DCNs) is receiving an increased attention in the network research community. Most DCNs deployed today can be classified as wired DCNs as copper and optical fiber cables are used for intra-and inter-rack connections in the network. Despite recent advances, wired DCNs face two inevitable problems; cabling complexity and hotspots.To address these problems, recent research works suggest the incorporation of wireless communication technology into DCNs. Wireless links can be used to either augment conventional wired DCNs, or to realize a pure wireless DCN. As the design spectrum of DCs broadens, so does the need for a clear classification to differentiate various design options. In this paper, we analyze the free space optical (FSO) communication and the 60 GHz radio frequency (RF), the two key candidate technologies for implementing wireless links in DCNs. We present a generic classification scheme that can be used to classify current and future DCNs based on the communication technology used in the network. The proposed classification is then used to review and summarize major research in this area. We also discuss open questions and future research directions in the area of wireless DCs.Index Terms-Wireless data centers, 60 GHz, free space optical (FSO), optical wireless communication (OWC), data centers, data center network.

“…In the last decade, intensive researches have been done, especially in terms of designing new millimeter wave components operating over the V-band frequency (50 -75 GHz). Through those papers and publications, it has been proved that the millimeter-wave frequencies enable the design of compact low-cost wireless millimeter-wave communications front-ends which can permit convenient terminal mobility up to Gb/s data-rates (Smulders et al, 2007;Smulders, 2002;Collonge et al, 2003;Tatu & Moldovan, 2007).…”
