Abstract

This paper investigates the spatial cross-correlation properties of 5G channel modeling in non-line of sight (NLOS) of Urban Micro Cell (UMi), Rural Macro Cell (RMa) and Indoor cell (InH) at 6 GHz frequency band as Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) specification. In our spatial correlation Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel, if increasing the distances of BS antenna elements, the correlation characteristics of the channel dramatically vary, that leads to alter the observed system behavior. By analyzing the 5G LDPC code and using different decoding algorithms and code rates, we evaluate the system’s performance by Bit Error Rate (BER) in wideband correlated Multiple-input multiple-output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system. In our spatial correlation, the more rising of the distances of antenna elements in the BS side, the better of the effectiveness of the LDPC decoding algorithms achieved. Of the Belief Propagation based (BP-based) Algorithm, Offset Minimum-Sum (OMS) Algorithm and Linear Approximation Minimum-Sum (LAMS) Algorithm, we propose to use the LAMS decoding algorithm with high code rate 5/6 in our spatial correlated wideband channel because of lower complexity and more efficiency in term of the system’s performance
