Sustainable spectrum sharing 5G network antenna design for smart city

Vishal Walia, Md Rashid Mahmood, Vikas Maheshwari

Abstract


The objective of this research paper is to propose the design of an integrated circuit (IC) combined with an antenna to reduce the footprint on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The aim is to enhance its power, space efficiency, and sustainability in order to improve its usefulness, especially in smart city communication. This paper introduces a smart antenna design that enables message transmission and reception through multiple channels while also facilitating wireless spectrum sharing over a 5G network. The effectiveness of a sustainably designed 2 × 2 Planner array antenna is evaluated by measuring the return values (in dB) and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) values with respect to frequency changes. The operational frequencies of the antenna are 44.3 GHz and 35.2 GHz, achieving a maximum gain of 15.4 dB at 29 GHz. The radiation efficiency is determined to be 85% at the resonance frequencies. In future, it would be beneficial to focus on developing an antenna with similar characteristics while utilising a smaller number of elements.
