DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nMillimeter wave (mmWave) communications is viewed a
 s the key enabler of 5G cellular networks due to vast spectrum availabilit
 y that could boost peak rate and capacity. Due to increased propagation lo
 ss in mmWave band\, transceivers with massive antenna array are required t
 o meet link budget. While massive antenna arrays enable high gain\, direct
 ionality and user multiplexing\, practical realizations face many challeng
 es in radio design and physical layer processing. In this talk\, we first 
 review emerging massive array architectures for mmWave communications and 
 compare their performance\, power consumption\, and cost with comprehensiv
 e hardware block model under typical application use cases. We then discus
 s two important physical layer design aspects in mobile mmWave networks: d
 irectional link establishment via initial access and directional link main
 tenance via mmWave channel tracking. Lastly\, we present the state-of-the-
 art designs of current mmWave standards\, discuss their limitation and pro
 vide perspectives on innovative approaches for performance boosts and hard
 ware improvements\n\nCo-sponsored by: Pradeep Kumar\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Dan
