Abstract

Point to multipoint (PmP) distribution at millimeter wave is a frontier so far not yet crossed due to the formidable technological challenge that the high atmospheric attenuation poses. The transmission power at level of tens of Watts required at millimeter wave for a reference range of 1 km is not available by any commercial or laboratory solid state devices. However, the availability of PmP with multigigabit data rate is pivotal for the new high density small cell networks for 4G and 5G and to solve the digital divide in areas where fiber is not convenient or possible to be deployed. In this paper, the advancements of the novel approach proposed by the EU Horizon 2020 TWEETHER project to create the first and fastest outdoor W-band (92 – 95 GHz) PmP wireless network are described. For the first time a new generation W-band traveling wave tube high power amplifier is introduced in the transmission hub to provide the enabling power for a wide area distribution.

TWEETHER下一代w波段回程和接入网技术

由于高大气衰减带来的巨大技术挑战，毫米波的点到多点分布是迄今为止尚未跨越的一个前沿领域。对于参考范围为1公里的毫米波，需要几十瓦的传输功率，任何商用或实验室固态设备都无法提供。然而，具有千兆位数据速率的PmP的可用性对于4G和5G的新型高密度小型蜂窝网络以及解决光纤不方便或不可能部署的地区的数字鸿沟至关重要。本文介绍了由欧盟地平线2020 TWEETHER项目提出的新方法的进展，该方法旨在创建第一个也是最快的室外w波段(92 - 95 GHz) PmP无线网络。在传输集线器中首次引入新一代w波段行波管高功率放大器，为广域分布提供使能功率。
