A. Overview
GK-5G mobile communication system has the target of
providing 1Gbps average data rate per UE and 100Gbps cell
capacity in order to support giga bit mobile service such as
ultra high definition (UHD) and hologram. To meet the target,
GK-5G mobile communication system utilizes mmWave band
in the 10-40GHz frequency range.
To improve reuse of frequency resource, effective spatial
division multiple access (SDMA) is applied based on massive
antenna structure. And beamforming technology on patch

2) Relay
Strong straightness of the mmWave maximizes channel
condition in line-of-sight (LoS) region and signal propagation
in non-line-of-sight (NLoS) regions of mmWave
communication systems is somewhat covered by signal
characteristics such as reflection and diffraction. However, in
the urban environment which have many communication
obstacles such as metal and concrete buildings, there are many
coverage holes where radio signals are hardly propagated.

B. Features
1) 3D Beamforming
In order to cope with a large pathloss of mmWave in the
GK-5G mobile communication system, multi-beams are
formed using patch antenna arrays in 3D and each beam forms
one virtual cell in SDMA.
GK-5G BS considers switched beamforming in which a
static set of beams is formed in each direction without
consideration of the surrounding environment.
For beam based communication, GK-5G BS has the
antenna configuration of 2D array of patch antennas for 3D
beamforming as shown in Fig. 2.
Antenna structure of GK-5G BS consists of 3 120 sectors.
Patch antennas are arrayed in 3 rows in each sector, and 6
antennas are located in the 1st and 2nd row and 4 antennas are
located in the 3rd row.

3) Multi-beam control
GK-5G UE equipped with a circular antenna array selects
an optimal beam through low-power fast search of neighbor
beam. Multi-beam coordination and inter-beam interference
coordination mechanism is used for interference control.
Fig. 5 shows the concept of multi-beam control in the GK5G mobile communication systems.

A. Simulation Environment
Prior to realization of GK-5G system, it is important to
evaluate and verify performance of designed system on system
level. In order to evaluate the realistic performance of the GK5G mobile communication system in real-world environments,
system level simulator based on real geospatial information is
developed.
Performance evaluation has been done for the 500m by
500m open area and urban area at Daejeon city, Republic of
Korea. For the simulation, 3D geographical environment that
include the coordinates of buildings and their heights from the
ground is constructed from real geospatial information of urban
area as shown in Fig. 7.

B. SINR map
Table II shows SINR map of the open area and Table III
shows SINR map of the urban area.
By neighbor beam interference, low SINR regions of below
5dB exists in the open area having not propagation obstacle.
In the urban area, many regions having SINR level below 10 dB exist due to many propagation obstacles such as
different level high-rise buildings,.
