The study and exploration of massive multiple-input multiple-output (MMIMO) and millimeter-wave wireless access technology has been spurred by a shortage of bandwidth in the wireless communication sector. Massive MIMO, which combines antennas at the transmitter and receiver, is a key enabler technology for next-generation networks to enable exceptional spectrum and energy efficiency with simple processing techniques. For massive MIMOs, the lower band microwave or millimeter-wave band and the antenna are impeccably combined with RF transceivers. As a result, the 5G wireless communication antenna differs from traditional antennas in many ways. A new concept of the MIMO tri-band hexagonal antenna array is being introduced for next-generation cellular networks. With a total scaling dimension of 150 × 75 mm², the structure consists of multiple hexagonal fractal antenna components at different corners of the patch. The radiating patch resonates at 2.55–2.75, 3.45–3.7, and 5.65–6.05 GHz (FR1 band) for better return loss (S11) of more than 15 dB in all three operating bands. The coplanar waveguide (CPW) feeding technique and defective ground structure in the ground plane have been employed for effective impedance matching. The deviation of the main lobe of the radiation pattern is achieved using a two-element microstrip Taylor antenna array with series feeding, which also boosts the antenna array’s bandwidth and minimizes sidelobe. The proposed antenna is designed, simulated, and tested in far-field radiating conditions and generates tri-band S-parameters with sufficient separation and high-quality double-polarized radiation. The fabrication and testing of MIMO antennas were completed, where the measurement results matched the simulation results. In addition, the 5G smartphone antenna system requires a new, lightweight phased microwave antenna (μ-wave) with wide bandwidth and a fire extender. Because of its decent performance and compact architectures, the proposed smartphone antenna array architecture is a better entrant for upcoming 5G cellular implementations.

Efficient clustering and routing is a main challenge in a wireless sensor network (WSN). To achieve better quality-of-service (QoS) performance, this work introduces k-medoids with improved artificial-bee-colony (K-IABC)-based energy-efficient clustering and the cross-layer-based Harris-hawks-optimization-algorithm (CL-HHO) routing protocol for WSN. To overcome the power-asymmetry problem in wireless sensor networks, a cross-layer-based optimal-routing solution is proposed. The goal of cross-layer routing algorithms is to decrease network-transmission delay and power consumption. This algorithm which was used to evaluate and select the effective path route and data transfer was implemented using MATLAB, and the results were compared to some existing techniques. The proposed CL-HHO performs well in packet-loss ratio (PLR), throughput, end-to-end delay (E2E), jitter, network lifetime (NLT) and buffer occupancy. These results are then validated by comparing them to traditional routing strategies such as hierarchical energy-efficient data gathering (HEED), energy-efficient-clustering routing protocol (EECRP), Grey wolf optimization (GWO), and cross-layer-based Ant-Lion optimization (CL-ALO). Compared to the HEED, EECRP, GWO, and CL-ALO algorithms, the proposed CL-HHO outperforms them.

In this paper, a compact bandpass filter with improved band stop and band pass characteristics for wireless applications is built with four internal conductive poles in a single resonating cavity, which adds novel quad-resonating modes to the realization of band pass filter. This paper covers the design and testing of the S-band combline coaxial cavity filter which is beneficial in efficient filtering functions in wireless communication system design. The metallic cavity high Q coaxial resonators have the advantages of narrowband, low loss, better selectivity and high potential for power handling, as compared to microstrip filter in the application to determine the quality factor of motor oils. Furthermore, the tuning of coupling screws in the combline filter allows in frequency and bandwidth adjustments. An impedance bandwidth of 500 MHz (fractional bandwidth of 12.8%) has been achieved with an insertion loss of less than 2.5 dB and return loss of 18 dB at the resonant frequency. Four-pole resonating cavity filters have been developed with the center frequency of 4.5 GHz. Insert loss at 0 dB and estimated bandwidth at 850 MHz and a quality factor of 4.3 for the band pass frequencies between 4 and 8 GHz is seen in the simulated result.

An isolation improvement for a closely spaced quad port multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna for WLAN applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of four L-shaped monopole microstrip patch antennas with a rectangular slot at the center and truncated edges at the corner of each patch element. Interelement isolation is improved by more than 12dB by considering the patch size, ground size, and distance between the patch elements. The designed antenna uses λ/4 distance between the patch elements. The slot in each patch improves the bandwidth, and truncated edges at the corner of the patch improve the impedance matching of the antenna. The proposed MIMO antenna is designed with the overall dimensions of 45.5mm45.5mm1.96mm. The MIMO parameters for the proposed technique, which include envelope correlation coefficient (E.C.C.) are less than 0.5, and the diversity gain (D.G.) is 10dB, suggesting this antennas suitability for MIMO operations. The average peak realized gain (A.P.R.G.) and radiation efficiency (RE) is 2.8dBi and greater than 80 for the prescribed band of interest. The antenna element is fabricated and tested using microwave analyzer N9917A. The measured result seems to be in good contact with the simulation. The proposed MIMO antenna is well-suitable for WLAN applications.

Multiple-input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems require orthogonal frequency division multiplexing to operate efficiently in multipath communication (OFDM). Channel estimation (C.E.) is used in channel conditions where time-varying features are required. The existing channel estimation techniques are highly complicated. A channel estimation algorithm is needed to estimate the received signal’s correctness. In order to resolve this complexity in C.E. methodologies, this paper developed an Improved Channel Estimation Algorithm integrated with DFT-LS-WIENER (ICEA-DA). The Least Square (L.S.) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) algorithms also use the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT)-based channel estimation method. The DFT-LS-WIENER channel estimation approach is recommended for better BER performance. The input signal is modulated in the transmitter module using the Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) technique, pulse modeling, and least squares concepts. The L.S. Estimation technique needs the channel consistent throughout the estimation period. DFT joined with L.S. gives higher estimation precision and limits M.S.E. and BER. Experimental analysis of the proposed state-of-the-art method shows that DFT-LS-WIENER provides superior performance in terms of symbol error rate (S.E.R.), bit error rate (BER), channel capacity (CC), and peak signal-to-noise (PSNR). At 15 dB SNR, the proposed DFT-LS-WIENER techniques reduce the BER of 48.19%, 38.19%, 14.8%, and 14.03% compared to L.S., LS-DFT, MMSE, and MMSE-DFT. Compared to the conventional algorithm, the proposed DFT-LS-WIENER outperform them.
