Abstract

In this paper, the performance of a cloud radio access networks (C-RAN) where remote radio heads (RRHs) operating at millimeter wave (mm-Wave) range are modeled as a homogeneous Poisson point process has been investigated. In this network, due to the high frequency and small wavelength, we use a LOS circle concept from the former study. Considering downlink transmission, we were compared the performance of two different transmission schemes. First is the selection transmission which chooses the best RRH (BR) for transmission. Another scheme is all the RRHs participated (ARP) and transmission the signal together to the typical user. We analysis the outage and capacity of the two schemes and ARP transmission scheme always performed better.
