The beam entropy is used to quantify sparse MIMO channel randomness in beamspace. Lower relative beam entropy channels are suitable for memory- assisted statistically-ranked (MarS) and hybrid radio frequency (RF) beam training algorithms. High beam entropies can potentially be advantageous for low overhead secured radio communications by generating cryptographic keys based on the channel randomness in beamspace, especially for sparse multiple-input multiple- output (MIMO) channels. Urban microcell (UMi) and urban macrocell (UMa) cellular scenarios have been investigated in this work for 28, 60, 73, and 100 GHz carrier frequencies and the rural macrocell (RMa) scenario for 3.5 GHz.}, language = {en} } @misc{TiwariGrassThompsonetal., author = {Tiwari, Krishan Kumar and Grass, Eckhard and Thompson, John S. and Kraemer, Rolf}, title = {Memory-Assisted Statistically-Ranked RF Beam Training Algorithm for Sparse MIMO}, series = {2020 IEEE 91st Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC2020-Spring)}, journal = {2020 IEEE 91st Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC2020-Spring)}, isbn = {978-1-7281-5207-3}, issn = {2577-2465}, doi = {10.1109/VTC2020-Spring48590.2020.9129037}, language = {en} }
