Localization and communication resource budgeting for multi-user mm-Wave MIMO

ABSTRACT: In this paper, we study the trade-off between data and localization services while dividing time and frequency resources in a multi-user millimeter-wave system. In this multi-service system, budgeting more resources for the data service than for localization would indeed imply higher data rates but also, adversely, higher position and orientation estimation errors. Based on theoretical localization performance bounds and on the expression of the average data rate per user, we herein investigate and compare various ways the two different services could be operated.
