Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a novel mmWave access architecture, called mmWave over cable (mmWoC), for achieving effective indoor coverage, which is characterized by using an analog modulated relay link to transport the outdoor mmWave signalsto the indoors. To enable an effective mapping of radio signals onthe cable sub-carriers, we introduce non-configurable air-to-cable(NC-A2C) scheduler that is characterized by its low control com-plexity and hardware requirement. We will discuss the merits ofthe proposed mmWoC access architecture and the NC-A2C sched-uler, which are further validated via extensive simulations.
