Abstract
5G communication network has been developed and applied in recent years, the researches on 5G communication network planning have become gradually sufficient. However, the previous researches on the coverage planning of 5G signals are mostly based on 2D spatial framework, for the constructed 5G communication network, there is still a research gap in the evaluation of the coverage of 5G signals in outdoor environment of modern cities from the perspective of 3D spatial framework. We selected several blocks from Shenzhen city as the study area. In this study, we conducted spatial autocorrelation analysis on the spatial distribution of 5G base stations in the study area, and found that the characteristic of the spatial distribution of 5G BSs illustrates a kind of random rather than aggregate or discrete. And, we established a 3D model of the buildings and 5G BSs distribution in the study area, combined with the height of the buildings and the construction height of the 5G BSs, the 3D sight lines of the 5G BSs to the road network represents the LOS service coverage of the 5G BSs to the road network. The value of the Global Moran’s I approaches to 0, the coverage ratio of the roads in the study area is about 18.89%.
