In mmWave networks, a large or nearby object can obstruct multiple communication links, which results in spatial correlation in the blocking probability between a user and two or more base stations (BSs). This paper characterizes this blocking correlation and derives its impact on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of a mmWave cellular network. We first present an exact analysis of a 1D network and highlight the impact of blocking correlation in the derived expressions. Gaining insights from the 1D analysis, we develop an analytical framework for a 2D network where we characterize the sum interference at the user by considering the correlation between the blocking of serving and interfering links. Using this, we derive the SINR coverage probability. Via simulations, we demonstrate that including blockage correlation in the analysis is required for accurate characterization of the system performance, in particular when the blocking objects tend to be large. |
