Mmwave for extended reality: open user mobility dataset, characterization, and impact on link quality Alexander Marinsek, Sam De Kunst, Gilles Callebaut, [et. al.] - 2024

User mobility in extended reality (XR) can have
a major impact on millimeter-wave (mmWave) links and may
require dedicated mitigation strategies to ensure reliable connections and avoid outage. The available prior art has predominantly focused on XR applications with constrained user
mobility and limited impact on mmWave channels. We have
performed dedicated experiments to extend the characterisation
of relevant future XR use cases featuring a high degree of
user mobility. To this end, we have carried out a tailor-made
measurement campaign and conducted a characterisation of the
collected tracking data, including the approximation of the data
using statistical distributions. Moreover, we have provided an
interpretation of the possible impact of the recorded mobility on
mmWave technology. The dataset is made publicly accessible to
provide a testing ground for wireless system design and to enable
further XR mobility modelling.
