Sumario:5G mobile communication systems should bring significant benefits such as lower latency, higher peak and user data rates, connection density and availability. To achieve such benefits beamforming at the base stations and new high frequency bands will be used. The work developed in this project is intended to contribute to demonstrating the feasibility of beamforming by means of a 5G mobile network in the Ciutadella area in Barcelona using a professional software, for wireless network design and optimisation, ATOLL from Forsk company. This project aims to deploy a small cell mmWave deployment in two different scenarios. The first scenario, with low user density; the second scenario, with high user density (including 3D traffic). We achieved good performance in both scenarios when using beamforming in terms of throughput, received SINR and number of users connected.
