NYU WIRELESS just released a ground-breaking new NYUSIM Channel Simulator. The NYUSIM Channel Simulator provides a complete statistical channel model and simulation code with an easy-to-use interface for generating realistic spatial and temporal wideband channel impulse responses. The simulator is based on the following papers: “3-D Millimeter-Wave Statistical Channel Model for 5G Wireless System Design,” …

NYU WIRELESS recently had 4 papers in the top 100 downloaded papers throughout the entire universe of IEEE publications. This is a remarkable accomplishment, showing that the support from the NYU WIRELESS Industrial Affiliates and the NSF and NIH, and the tireless efforts by NYU WIRELESS graduate students and faculty, are combining to make a …

As the 5G standardization process gathers momentum, it is increasingly clear that millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies of above 30GHz will play a critical role in overcoming the spectrum crunch in the traditional 4G bands. In addition to the enormous amounts of spectrum available in these bands, the small wavelengths in mmWave signals enable both the …

In a major speech given yesterday, FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler announced the government’s contribution to 5G is to make significant amounts of radio spectrum available for new 5G technologies, a simple but highly impactful approach to fostering 5G innovation in the United States. NYU WIRELESS has been convening industry leaders and academic researchers in 5G …

In a world of 7 billion cell phones, wireless service providers are always searching for ways to maximize the efficiency of wireless spectrum to improve service. The so-called “half duplex” radios that comprise today’s cellular base stations perform two functions: They send signals and receive signals. Yet, despite a decade of dizzying advances in speed, …
