Abstract

This paper reports the evaluation of 5G mobile performance which has concerned by the effect of rain attenuation in tropical suburban area of Indonesia. The spectrum work of 5G-NR technology is at 26 and 41 GHz. The simulation was conducted on the basis of NYUSIM simulator of New York University, for the three different distance scenarios, i.e. 100 meter, 500 meter, and 1000 meter distances. The rainfall data of Depok City is taken as the representative of the suburban city in Indonesia. In 100-meter distance scenario, the best outage capacity is achieved by 5 Gbps at 41 GHz using outage reference point of 0.3. In 500-meter distance scenario, the best outage capacity is achieved by 2.9 Gbps at 26 GHz using outage reference point of 0.3. Meanwhile, in 1000-meter distance scenario, the best outage capacity is achieved by 3.5 Gbps at 26 GHz using outage reference point of 0.3. The results indicate that attenuation from rain losses affects the transmission of millimeter wave, but when compared to other losses e.g. obstruction by building or trees, the increasing distance would render it insignificant in peak capacity calculation.
