LiDAR-Derived Surface Priors for Multimodal Sensing-Assisted NLoS Beam Search in Indoor 60-GHz Networks
Amod Ashtekar, Dalton Davis, Rafaela Lomboy +3
Highly directional 60-GHz Internet-of-Things (IoT) links can exploit naturally occurring indoor surfaces to sustain connectivity under blockage. Identifying viable non-line-of-sigh…
See and Beam: Leveraging LiDAR Sensing and Specular Surfaces for Indoor mmWave Connectivity
Raj Sai Sohel Bandari, Amod Ashtekar, Omar Ibrahim +1
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication enables multi-gigabit-per-second data rates but is highly susceptible to path loss and blockage, especially indoors. Many indoor settings, ho…
LiDAR-Aided Millimeter-Wave Range Extension using a Passive Mirror Reflector
Omar Ibrahim, Raj Sai Sohel Bandari, Mohammed E. Eltayeb
Passive reflectors mitigate millimeter-wave (mmwave) link blockages by extending coverage to non-line-ofsight (NLoS) regions. However, their deployment often leads to irregular ref…
Compressive Beam Alignment for Indoor Millimeter-Wave Systems
April Junio, Rafaela Lomboy, Raj Sai Sohel Bandari +1
The dynamic nature of indoor environments poses unique challenges for next-generation millimeter-wave (mmwave) connectivity. These challenges arise from blockages due to mobile obs…
