Millimeter-Wave Distributed Antenna Systems for Interactive Virtual Reality: Reducing blockage and exposure and enhancing robustness with (air-filled) substrate-integrated waveguide antennas. [Bioelectromagnetics]
In this column article, millimeter-wave (mmWave)-over-fiber-based distributed antenna systems (DASs) are showcased to realize reliable high-data-rate wireless links for demanding applications, such as interactive virtual reality, where line-of-sight blockage due to the presence of the user’s own body and external (human) blockers frequently occurs. Distributed architectures, such as DASs, pose a good solution to alleviate these losses, while keeping the background exposure low. Additionally, [air-filled (AF)] substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) antenna topologies are compared to dipole and patch antennas and are found to be more robust in close proximity to the body, in terms of both bioelectromagnetic (bio-EM) effects and communication performance. Finally, a practical demonstration of a mmWave DAS with head-mounted user equipment (UE) exhibits reliable 12-Gb/s wireless links in the n257 band under full rotation and head tilting of the user. By leveraging distributed multiple-input, multiple-output (DMIMO) techniques, the throughput can even be raised to 24 Gb/s.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine actively solicits feature articles that describe engineering activities taking place in industry, government, and universities. All feature articles are subject to peer review. Emphasis is placed on providing the reader with a general understanding of either a particular subject or of the technical challenges being addressed by various organizations, as well as their capabilities to cope with these challenges. Articles presenting new results, review, tutorial, and historical articles are welcome, as are articles describing examples of good engineering. The technical field of interest of the Magazine is the same as the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, and includes the following: antennas, including analysis, design, development, measurement, and testing; radiation, propagation, and the interaction of electromagnetic waves with discrete and continuous media; and applications and systems pertinent to antennas, propagation, and sensing, such as applied optics, millimeter- and sub-millimeter-wave techniques, antenna signal processing and control, radio astronomy, and propagation and radiation aspects of terrestrial and space-based communication, including wireless, mobile, satellite, and telecommunications.
