Currently existing pointing error models are lacking in capturing the mmWave/THz radiation characteristics and/or the impact of antenna design and array design. Therefore, in this letter, a simple analytical pointing error model for highly directional mmWave/THz transmission is proposed. By utilizing the Gaussian beam approximation for both the array element radiation pattern and the array factor, the presented model incorporates antenna design parameters (maximum gain and 3 dB beamwidth) and array design parameters (number of array elements, element spacing, and 3 dB beamwidth). This approximation is validated via electromagnetic simulations in CST Microwave Studio. Afterwards, the statistics of the pointing error are derived according to the Gaussian beam approximation, and it is demonstrated that the pointing error follows a special case of the negative log-Gamma distribution with the shape parameter of 2 and the scale parameter depending on antenna/array design and jitter variance. It is shown that the proposed model aligns perfectly with the simulation results. Moreover, the outage performance of an aerial communication scenario is analyzed to examine the impact of pointing errors. The results have revealed that the antenna and array design parameters are as influential as the jitter variance, and they cannot be neglected.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 6Model-Based Ideal Testing of Gui Programs-Approach and Case Studies(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2021) Kilincceker, Onur; Silistre, Alper; Belli, Fevzi; Challenger, MoharramTraditionally, software testing is aimed at showing the presence of faults. This paper proposes a novel approach to testing graphical user interfaces (GUI) for showing both the presence and absence of faults in the sense of ideal testing. The approach uses a positive testing concept to show that the GUI under consideration (GUC) does what the user expects; to the contrary, the negative testing concept shows that the GUC does not do anything that the user does not expect, building a holistic view. The first step of the approach models the GUC by a finite state machine (FSM) that enables the model-based generation of test cases. This is always possible as the GUIs are considered as strictly sequential processes. The next step converts the FSM to an equivalent regular expression (RE) that will be analyzed first to construct test selection criteria for excluding redundant test cases and construct test coverage criteria for terminating the positive test process. Both criteria enable us to assess the adequacy and efficiency of the positive tests performed. The negative tests will be realized by systematically mutating the FSM to model faults, the absence of which are to be shown. Those mutant FSMs will be handled and assessed in the same way as in positive testing. Two case studies illustrate and validate the approach; the experiments' results will be analyzed to discuss the pros and cons of the techniques introduced.
