A Statistical Estimation of 5G Massive MIMO’s Exposure using Stochastic Geometry
Résumé
This paper aims to estimate the exposure in 5G massive MIMO networks using a stochastic geometric approach. The paper investigates the effect of beamforming, and the effect of multi-user massive MIMO on the exposure of a 5G network. The massive MIMO antenna pattern distribution is obtained by fitting the radiation pattern obtained by running a large amount of channel simulations on NYUSIM. The distribution is then implemented into an analytical framework based on stochastic geometry, so we can obtain a close form expression of the downlink exposure.
