Channel Measurement, Modeling, and Simulation for 6G: A Survey and Tutorial
arxiv(2023)
摘要
The sixth generation (6G) mobile communications have attracted substantial
attention in the global research community of information and communication
technologies (ICT). 6G systems are expected to support not only extended 5G
usage scenarios, but also new usage scenarios, such as integrated sensing and
communication (ISAC), integrated artificial intelligence (AI) and
communication, and communication and ubiquitous connectivity. To realize this
goal, channel characteristics must be comprehensively studied and properly
exploited, so as to promote the design, standardization, and optimization of 6G
systems. In this paper, we first summarize the requirements and challenges in
6G channel research. Our focus is on channels for five promising technologies
enabling 6G, including terahertz (THz), extreme MIMO (E-MIMO), ISAC,
reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), and space-air-ground integrated
network (SAGIN). Then, a survey of the progress of the 6G channel research
regarding the above five promising technologies is presented in terms of the
latest measurement campaigns, new characteristics, modeling methods, and
research prospects. Moreover, a tutorial on the 6G channel simulations is
presented. We introduce the BUPTCMG- 6G, a 6G link-level channel simulator,
developed based on the ITU/3GPP 3D geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM)
methodology. The simulator supports the channel simulation of the
aforementioned 6G potential technologies. To facilitate the use of the
simulator, the tutorial encompasses the design framework, user guidelines, and
application examples. This paper offers in-depth, hands-on insights into the
best practices of channel measurements, modeling, and simulations for the
evaluation of 6G technologies, the development of 6G standards, and the
implementation and optimization of 6G systems.
