title = "Design of mmW Digital Twin platform toward B5G/6G - High-Precision Measurement System and Relay Station Deployment-",
abstract = "The 5th generation (5G) mobile communication system has started to provide services in many countries. The millimeter-wave (mmW) and beamforming are emerging technologies therein to support ultra-high communication speed. To combat the limited coverage and blocking problem of mmW, deploying relay stations (RS, a.k.a repeaters) is a promising solution for a reliable and efficient service area. However, the design of service areas, or more specifically, the deployment of RS requires a detailed understanding of the propagation environment. This paper proposes a novel digital twin architecture that can reproduce the real-time propagation environment in virtual space to support the dynamic placement of the RSs. As an initial study, we carried out high-precision propagation measurements in the Beyond 5G R\&D Proof-of-Concept field in Ookayama Campus of Tokyo Institute of Technology and investigated RS deployment challenges.",
