L'elaborato si suddivide essenzialmente in due parti principali. Una prima parte descrittiva dove vengono presentati i concetti fondamentali per la corretta comprensione della seconda, nella quale viene descritto il progetto svolto. Esso mira a valutare l’effetto che oggetti in metallo presenti in prossimità di un incrocio stradale hanno sulla propagazione del segnale radio, e in particolare sulla generazione di cammini multipli. I cammini multipli vengono infatti sfruttati dalle tecnologie di trasmissione a multiple antenne (MIMO) per incrementare la capacità di trasmissione. Un parametro sintetico che permette di caratterizzare le prestazioni dei sistemi MIMO è il cosiddetto Condition Number, che si è utilizzato in questo elaborato. Per effettuare lo studio delle prestazioni MIMO si sono utilizzate simulazioni elettromagnetiche a raggi (ray-tracing) e misure sperimentali, che sono state effettuate in prossimità del campus dell’Università Jiaotong di Shanghai, in Cina. Inizialmente, utilizzando una mappa standard dell’ambiente di propagazione, contenente i soli edifici, i valori di Condition Number ottenuti dalle simulazioni ray-tracing differivano notevolmente dai valori sperimentali. Il mio compito è stato quello di modellare nuovi elementi di forma cilindrica che ben simulano le proprietà fisico-geometriche dei pali e di altri oggetti metallici presenti lungo il tragitto e nelle intersezioni stradali e di inserirli nella mappa nella corretta posizione. Le simulazioni poi sono servite per valutare l’efficacia in termini di miglioramento delle prestazioni, in particolare sulla generazione di nuovi cammini sfasati nel tempo e nello spazio, e il relativo effetto sui valori numerici del condition number. Successivamente, è stata fatta una valutazione sull’influenza della vegetazione presente in loco per vedere quanta influenza abbia sul collegamento radio.

The thesis is focused on introducing basic MIMO-based and Massive MIMO-based systems and their possible benefits. Then going through the implementation options that we have, according to 3GPP standards, for 5G systems and how the transition is done from a non-standalone 5G RAN to a completely standalone 5G RAN. Having introduced the above-mentioned subjects and providing some definition of telecommunications principles, we move forward to a more technical analysis of the Capacity, Throughput, Power consumption, and Costs. Comparing all the mentioned parameters between a Massive-MIMO-based system and a MIMO-based system. In the analysis of power consumption and costs, we also introduce the concept of virtualization and its benefits in terms of both power and costs. Finally, we try to justify a trade-off between having a more reliable system with a high capacity and throughput while keeping the costs as low as possible.

Radio Simultaneous Location and Mapping (SLAM) consists of the simultaneous tracking of the target and estimation of the surrounding environment, to build a map and estimate the target movements within it. It is an increasingly exploited technique for automotive applications, in order to improve the localization of obstacles and the target relative movement with respect to them, for emergency situations, for example when it is necessary to explore (with a drone or a robot) environments with a limited visibility, or for personal radar applications, thanks to its versatility and cheapness. Until today, these systems were based on light detection and ranging (lidar) or visual cameras, high-accuracy and expensive approaches that are limited to specific environments and weather conditions. Instead, in case of smoke, fog or simply darkness, radar-based systems can operate exactly in the same way. In this thesis activity, the Fourier-Mellin algorithm is analyzed and implemented, to verify the applicability to Radio SLAM, in which the radar frames can be treated as images and the radar motion between consecutive frames can be covered with registration. Furthermore, a simplified version of that algorithm is proposed, in order to solve the problems of the Fourier-Mellin algorithm when working with real radar images and improve the performance. The INRAS RBK2, a MIMO 2x16 mmWave radar, is used for experimental acquisitions, consisting of multiple tests performed in Lab-E of the Cesena Campus, University of Bologna. The different performances of Fourier-Mellin and its simplified version are compared also with the MatchScan algorithm, a classic algorithm for SLAM systems.

Recent years have witnessed an increasing evolution of wireless mobile networks, with an intensive research work aimed at developing new efficient techniques for the future 6G standards. In the framework of massive machine-type communication (mMTC), emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications, in which sensor nodes and smart devices transmit unpredictably and sporadically short data packets without coordination, are gaining an increasing interest. In this work, new medium access control (MAC) protocols for massive IoT, capable of supporting a non-instantaneous feedback from the receiver, are studied. These schemes guarantee an high time for the acknowledgment (ACK) messages to the base station (BS), without a significant performance loss. Then, an error floor analysis of the considered protocols is performed in order to obtain useful guidelines for the system design. Furthermore, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) coded random access (CRA) schemes based on power domain are here developed. The introduction of power diversity permits to solve more packet collision at the physical (PHY) layer, with an important reduction of the packet loss rate (PLR) in comparison to the number of active users in the system. The proposed solutions aim to improve the actual grant-free protocols, respecting the stringent constraints of scalability, reliability and latency requested by 6G networks.

The study of the user scheduling problem in a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Multi-User MIMO system is the objective of this thesis. With the application of cutting-edge digital beamforming algorithms, a LEO satellite with an antenna array and a large number of antenna elements can provide service to many user terminals (UTs) in full frequency reuse (FFR) schemes. Since the number of UTs on-ground are many more than the transmit antennas on the satellite, user scheduling is necessary. Scheduling can be accomplished by grouping users into different clusters: users within the same cluster are multiplexed and served together via Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA), i.e., digital beamforming or Multi-User MIMO techniques; the different clusters of users are then served on different time slots via Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA). The design of an optimal user grouping strategy is known to be an NP-complete problem which can be solved only through exhaustive search. In this thesis, we provide a graph-based user scheduling and feed space beamforming architecture for the downlink with the aim of reducing user inter-beam interference. The main idea is based on clustering users whose pairwise great-circle distance is as large as possible. First, we create a graph where the users represent the vertices, whereas an edge in the graph between 2 users exists if their great-circle distance is above a certain threshold. In the second step, we develop a low complex greedy user clustering technique and we iteratively search for the maximum clique in the graph, i.e., the largest fully connected subgraph in the graph. Finally, by using the 3 aforementioned power normalization techniques, a Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) beamforming matrix is deployed on a cluster basis. The suggested scheduling system is compared with a position-based scheduler, which generates a beam lattice on the ground and randomly selects one user per beam to form a cluster.

In this thesis asynchronous contention resolution diversity slotted ALOHA (ACRDA) is studied and implemented on computer to simulate a typical massive IoT scenario. Chapter 1 gives a general overview of existing multiple access schemes, reporting their fundamental concepts focusing more on Coded Random Access schemes and their characteristics. In Chapter 2 the asynchronous protocol ACRDA is explained in depth analyzing all parts of the scheme. In the third Chapter the results obtained following various simulations of the asynchronous scheme are reported and their performance are analyzed.
