Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Field trials of the fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication system using 28 GHz band at which 400 MHz band will be available have been performed all over the world. To realize large coverage at such a high frequency band, beamforming by Massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) is necessary to compensate large path loss. Furthermore, beam tracking which adaptively changes beam direction according to user location is an important function to support user mobility. Authors already conducted experimental trials using 28 GHz-band 5G prototypes implementing beam tracking in rural railroad environments. The experiment was performed with a train running over a straight track. We conducted another experimental trial deploying two 28 GHz-band base stations along with a curved track in urban railroad environment. This report reveals downlink performance results of the experimental trials.
