Abstract
Millimeter wave and massive MIMO are considered enabling technologies for future 5G networks. While their benefits for achieving high-data rate communications are well- known, their potential advantages for accurate positioning are largely undiscovered. We derive sufficient conditions under which transmission from a single mm-wave base station leads to a non- singular Fisher information matrix associated with the position and orientation of a user terminal equipped with multiple antennas, which is in turn a prerequisite for joint estimation of the position and orientation.
