Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This paper presents a path loss and coverage analysis study for candidate frequency bands in mmWave region for 5G. We performed numerical analysis over a sample outdoor region in our university campus and compared the coverage regions for different data rates at different frequency bands, namely 28, 60 and 73 GHz. Our results reveal that all frequency bands provide considerable coverage of almost the entire line-of-sight (LOS) region at low data rates. However, when the data rate requirement is increased, the coverage region with 73 GHz becomes approximately 10 times smaller than low data rate applications.
