This fast revolution drives researchers for developing the communication technology whether in software or hardware fields. Also, antenna design is considered as a basic field which needs a continuous developing for serving 5G wireless communication systems. The main goal of this thesis is designing a dual band, multiple-input multiple-output MIMO microstrip antenna for serving the 5G communication systems by achieving all the important features of the recent wireless communication systems. The proposed antenna is designed to operate at dual high frequencies (mm-waves) which are 28GHz and 38GHz. The 5G main features are also satisfied in the proposed design dual polarization, high bandwidth (>1 GHz) and high realized gain (>12 dBi). For enhancing the directivity and the realized gain of the antenna design, an antenna array is proposed where a two-element antenna array design and four-element antenna array design are built. The four-element array design has to achieve a high gain and high bandwidth at both bands of operation. Beam steering capability is achieved by inserting a phase shifter (transmission line) into the four element design. This modification added the ability for tilting the main radiation pattern to particular direction at the both resonant frequencies. The four element antennas (with and without the phase shifter) are used in a MIMO configurations for 5G handsets and base station with an octagonal structure.

The key innovation of the technology is the ability of ultra-low power devices to utilize nearby existing radio signals to communicate. As there is no need to generate their own ener- getic radio signal, the devices can benefit from a simple design, are very inexpensive and are extremely energy efficient compared with traditional wireless communica- tion. These benefits have made backscatter communication a desirable candidate for distributed wireless sensor network applications with energy constraints.

  • Circularly Polarized 2 Bit Reconfigurable Beam-Steering
    2416 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION, VOL. 68, NO. 3, MARCH 2020 Communication Circularly Polarized 2 Bit Reconfigurable Beam-Steering Antenna Array Peiqin Liu ,YueLi , and Zhijun Zhang Abstract—In this communication, a circularly polarized (CP) reconfigurable 2 bit antenna array is proposed for beam-steering applica- tions. The proposed antenna array utilizes a novel CP reconfigurable 2 bit patch antenna as radiation element. For a reconfigurable 2 bit element, there should be four phase states (i.e., 0◦,90◦, 180◦, and 270◦).Inthe proposed radiation element, a corner truncated microstrip patch antenna is presented for CP radiation. Owing to the symmetry of the patch antenna, the 0◦ and 180◦ phase states are achieved by selecting feeding points of the patch instead of using complex feeding network. A 90◦ digital phase shifter is cascaded to realize the 90◦ and 270◦ phase states for the 2 bit reconfigurable element. Based on the novel 2 bit CP element, an eight-element CP reconfigurable 2 bit antenna array is fabricated and tested to verify the design strategy at 3.65 GHz. The measured results match well with simulation. By appropriately controlling the ON and OFF states of p-i-n diodes, the proposed CP array can be steered from −49◦ to +49◦. Index Terms—2 bit radiation element, beam scanning, circular polar- ization, reconfigurable array. I. INTRODUCTION Circularly polarized (CP) beam-steering antennas have attracted special attention in various applications, such as satellite communication system, wireless communication system, and radar system [1]. In the past decade, many researchers have been concen- trating on beam steering with circular polarization.

(December 2004) Samuel John Kokel, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kai Chang This thesis proposes a novel technique using a phase-lock loop (PLL) style phase control loop to achieve retrodirective phased array antenna steering. This novel approach introduces the concept of phase scaling and frequency translation. It releases the retrodirective transmit-receive frequency ratio from integer constraints and avoids steering approximation errors. The concept was developed to achieve automatic and precise beam steering for the solar power satellite (SPS). The testing was performed using a transceiver converting a pair of received 2.9 GHz signals down to 10 MHz, and up converting two 10 MHz signals to 5.8 GHz.

  • Self-Interference in Full-Duplex 2×2 MIMO Transceivers: Channel Characterization and RF/Analog Cancellation
    Self-Interference in Full-Duplex 2×2 MIMO Transceivers: Channel Characterization and RF/Analog Cancellation Fei Chen Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering McGill University Montreal, Canada April 2017 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering. c 2017 Fei Chen 2017/04/07 i To my parents, with all my love. ii Abstract Spectrum resources become more and more scarce over last few decades, leading to the sig- nificance of effectively utilizing and allocating spectrum. Recently, in-band full-duplex (FD) operation has gained more attention as a potential approach of enhancing spectrum efficiency by simultaneous transmission and reception over the same frequency. One of the most challenging problems in FD communications is the existing strong self-interference (SI) from transmitter and co-located receiver. The SI must be suppressed to a sufficiently low level by a combination of an- tenna, radio frequency (RF) and baseband cancellation stages so that the intended signal received from the distant transmitter can be reliably demodulated. In this work, we study the SI-channel characteristics and develop a high performance RF/Analog self-interference canceller (SIC) for a 2×2 MIMO FD transceiver. First of all,SI cancellation technique requires knowledge ofSI propagation characteristics and models. We investigate of the wideband SI-channel propagation characteristics of a 2×2 MIMO with dual-polarized antennas. The SI-channels are measured at center frequency of 2.45GHz with 500MHz bandwidth in various environments: anechoic chamber, laboratory room, and cor- ridor. The measurement results show that the SI-channel can be represented by a multipath model composting of two segments: a quasi-static internal SI-sub-channel due to the particular Tx/Rx antenna structure and a time-varying and dynamic external SI-sub-channel due to possible reflec- tions from the surrounding objects.
