D-Band Radio Solutions For Beyond 5G Reconfigurable Meshed Cellular Networks

Authors:

Abstract
This paper presents a study of the D-band radio solutions, with beam-steering functionality, intended for use in the reconfigurable meshed network. The regulation and radio network constraints defining the specifications of a D-Band transceiver are reviewed. The architecture of the radio link is proposed and key enabling technologies needed to build the D-band transceiver are presented. The proposed solutions can be used for plenty of different radio connections, since they can provide a capacity level up to 100 Gbps over 160 meter and, at reduced capacity, hop lengths exceeding 1 km.
