講演タイトル：
Optimum designs of Wireless Networks with Massively Distributed Antennas and Non-ideal Optical Front-hauls
※講演は英語で行われ通訳はつきません

講演概要：
Employing massively distributed antennas brings radio access points (RAPs) closer to users, thus enables aggressive spectrum reuse that can bridge the gap between the scarce spectrum resource and extremely high connection densities in future wireless systems. Examples include cloud radio access network (C-RAN), ultra-dense network (UDN), and cell-free massive MIMO system. These systems are usually designed in the form of fiber-wireless communications (FWC), where the distributed antennas or RAPs are connected to a central unit (CU) through optical front-hauls. The large number of densely deployed antennas or RAPs requires an extensive infrastructure of optical front-hauls. Consequently, the cost, complexity, and power consumption of the network of optical front-hauls may dominate the performance of the entire system. This talk provides an overview and outlook on the architecture, modeling, design and performance of FWC systems with massively distributed antennas. The complex interactions between optical front-hauls and wireless access links require optimum designs across the optical and wireless domains by jointly exploiting their unique characteristics. It is demonstrated that FWC systems with analog radio-frequency-over-fiber (RFoF) links outperforms its baseband-over-fiber (BBoF) or intermediate-frequency-over-fiber (IFoF) counterparts for systems with shorter fiber length, lower transmission power, and more RAPs, which are all desired properties for future wireless communication systems.
