Popis: The large contiguous bandwidths available in the mm-wave frequency bands have recently started to gain significant attention due to the growing belief that it can alleviate the spectrum shortage at lower frequencies and meet the increasing high data rate demands. While some commercially available mm-wave transceivers in the 60 GHz and 70 GHz bands have been developed, only a few studies exist on the achievable data rates in realistic deployment scenarios. Moreover, practical issues such as interference and coexistence of heterogeneous applications have not been investigated. In this paper, we present our empirical study on the bit error ratio and throughput for realistic indoor application scenarios in 60 GHz and 70GHz using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based physical layer on various commercially available transceivers. Furthermore, we analyze the effects of interference on the performance characteristics of the mm-wave frequency links in different deployment setups.
