The global energy crisis and ozone layer depletion as a result of carbon emissions have increased the awareness and acceptance of renewable energy sources as an alternative form of electric power, resulting in the sizing of renewable energy sources. However, in order to properly size an energy power system, the information being addressed, such as the load demand, is critical. The Load demand data of Nile University campus is obtained from one of its power stations (PS-1) for a period of eight month. The data was measured from the bus bar of the power station using smart meters on a weekly basis. To power the university campus, the diesel generators are synchronized using Genset controllers with suitable communications interfaces and a SMA hybrid controller, which continually checks the power output of the power sources as well as the working condition of all loads in the busbar. The diesel generators are synchronized using SMA hybrid controllers and combined with the other source of the energy at a common bus bar and used to power the university campus. Additionally, carbon emission data were obtained from the PV solar system reading.
A novel microstrip patch filter which has a U-shaped defected ground structure (DGS) and a double line coupled resonator structure is presented. The U shaped DGS etched on the ground plane and the double line coupled structures, at the feed line, which has a U shape etched on both sides of the feed line were responsible for obtaining the bandpass filter. The double line coupled structure was placed at the midpoint of the two ports, having a gap of 1.2mm which created a weak coupling. Copper was used for the ground and patch, while FR4 was used for the substrate. The best parameters for the measurements were obtained through parameter sweep. The filter was simulated using CST 2019 simulation software and validated with CAD Feko 2019 software. The results were analyzed, which showed that it has steep selectivity and a low insertion loss of −1.27dB and transmission zeros at −26dB and −33bB. The filter has an operating frequency of 8.225GHz, which falls within the X band range that is used in radar and satellite applications.
Wireless data traffic has increased dramatically over time, and current wireless networks, such as the 5G network, are unable to keep up with the increasingly evolving technological requirements. Globally, fifth generation (5G) wireless communication networks are being deployed, but they may not be able to fulfill all potential requirements in 2030 and beyond. These shortcomings have prompted researchers around the world to concentrate their efforts on next generation 6G wireless networks, which are supposed to solve the issues. This research aims to provide a critical overview of the Visions of the 6G wireless communication and network structure, as well as to discuss the future challenges and possible solutions associated with 6G.
