Measurements of beamforming performance in commercial 5G deployments

Benedetti, Bruno - Rattaro, Claudina - Rodríguez Díaz, Benigno

Resumen:

This paper presents field measurements of different beamforming mechanisms using a commercial 5 G network. Beamforming enhances signal quality and capacity through directional transmission, and its effectiveness depends on factors like user position and feedback. We analyze Sounding Reference Signal (SRS)-based and codebook-based beamforming under real-world conditions. Results show SRS-based beamforming excels in mid-cell areas, while codebook-based performs better at the cell edge.
