Troubleshooting millimeter-wave (mm-wave) wireless networks is complex due to the directionality of the communication. Issues such as deafness, misaligned antennas, or blockage may severely impact network performance, and identifying them is crucial to improve network deployments. To this end, access to lower-layer information is important. However, commercial off-the-shelf mm-wave wireless devices...
The lower layer characteristics of 60 GHz wireless networks impact the entire protocol stack. This includes effects such as sudden link failure due to blockage, high packet loss due to deafness, or suboptimal transmit rates due to antenna misalignment. To understand the resulting behaviors at the upper layers, it is key to have access to lower layer information. At the time of writing, 60 GHz experimentation...
The directional nature of communication in millimeter-wave bands suggests that the frequency selectivity of the channel may be limited due to the absence of reflected paths. However, our measurement studies show that reflections often cause significant frequency selectivity in practical scenarios, which we can exploit to increase the otherwise limited range of 60 GHz networks. Specifically, we measure...
In this paper, we target single-anchor localization schemes for millimeter wave (MMW) systems. The schemes are designed to be lightweight, so that even computationally-constrained devices can support them. We identify the main propagation properties of MMW signals that have an impact on localization and design three algorithms that exploit these, namely a triangulation-validation procedure, an angle...
