Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) communication has been widely applied in the small cellular networks, and it is not difficult to find that mm-wave plays an important role in improving the capacity and data transmission rate of the 5G network systems. Nevertheless, mm-waves also have some disadvantages, such as large propagation loss and weak penetration blockage. Although the extremely high direction of the mm-wave can compensate for the propagation loss, highly directional transmissions of the mm-wave result in conventional omnidirectional transmission cell discovery schemes may fail in mm-waves; thus, we need to redesign the cell discovery scheme of mm-wave. In addition, the overhead of mm-wave cell discovery is also large. In order to reduce the overhead and provide a reasonable solution for the mm-wave base station (BS) discovery, we propose an analysis framework that utilizes out-of-band (OOB) information assistance. First, we consider the BS discovery problem as a hypothesis test problem. We analyze the statistical properties of the generalized logarithm likelihood ratio detector and study the detection performance of the detector. Through analysis and calculation, we are able to find that the OOB scheme can not only improve the detection performance but also reduce the system overhead. Then, we also analyze the performance of the OOB scheme in the case of multiple UEs. Finally, we use the angle information provided by the OOB information to predesign the mm-wave codebooks to achieve the optimal expected mode. Analysis of the simulation results demonstrates the effectiveness of the OOB information-assisted scheme. |
