“…The utilization of dual-band allows reduction in interference and allows the choice of transmission in a particular band depending on the propagation characteristics and the QoS requirements. Goudos et al [23] present a dual-band antenna design specifically designed for operation at 25 GHz and 37 GHz mmWave bands. These works highlight the need to overcome the hardware constraints for dual-band network operation.…”

The exponential growth in global mobile data traffic, especially with regards to the massive deployment of devices envisioned for fifth generation (5G) mobile networks, has given impetus to exploring new spectrum opportunities to support the new traffic demands. The millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency band is considered as a potential candidate for alleviating the spectrum scarcity. Moreover, the concept of multi-tier networks has gained popularity, especially for dense network environments. In this paper, we deviate from the conventional multi-tier networks and employ the concept of control-data separation architecture (CDSA), which comprises of a control base station (CBS) overlaying the data base station (DBS). We assume that the CBS operates on the sub-6 GHz single band, while the DBS possesses a dual-band mmWave capability, i.e., 26 GHz unlicensed band, and 60 GHz licensed band. We formulate a multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem, which jointly optimizes conflicting objectives: the spectral efficiency (SE) and the energy efficiency (EE). The unique aspect of this paper includes the analysis of a joint radio resource allocation algorithm based on Lagrangian Dual Decomposition (LDD) and we compare the proposed algorithm with the maximal-rate (maxRx), dynamic sub-carrier allocation (DSA) and joint power and rate adaptation (JPRA) algorithms to show the performance gains achieved by the proposed algorithm.

“…Thus, one solution to this problem is to move towards the higher frequencies in the spectrum to achieve higher bandwidth and data rate requirements [Jilani, Abbas, Esselle et al (2015); Alkaraki, Andy, Gao et al (2018)]. The future Fifth Generation (5G) communication is mostly focused on the millimeter wave spectrum (30-300 GHz) ; Khan, Rehman, Ahmad et al (2015); Hong, Baek and Ko (2017)] and is expected to provide 100-1000 times higher data rate as compared to the existing networks [Goudos, Tsiflikiotis, Babas et al (2017); Khan, Rehman, Ahmad et al (2015); Muirhead, Imran and Arshad (2016); Li, Sim, Luo et al (2017)]. But there are some critical limitations, which need to be resolved at the millimeter wave spectrum.…”

In this paper, a rotated Y-shaped antenna is designed and compared in terms of performance using a conventional and EBG ground planes for future Fifth Generation (5G) cellular communication system. The rotated Y-shaped antenna is designed to transmit at 38 GHz which is one of the most prominent candidate bands for future 5G communication systems. In the design of conventional antenna and metamaterial surfaces (mushroom, slotted), Rogers-5880 substrate having relative permittivity, thickness and loss tangent of 2.2, 0.254 mm, and 0.0009 respectively have been used. The conventional rotated Y-shaped antenna offers a satisfactory wider bandwidth (0.87 GHz) at 38.06 GHz frequency band, which gets further improved using the EBG surfaces (mushroom, slotted) as a ground plane by 1.23 GHz and 0.97 GHz respectively. Similarly, the conventional 5G antenna radiates efficiently with an efficiency of 88% and is increased by using the EBG surfaces (slotted, mushroom-like) to 90% and 94% respectively at the desired resonant frequency band. The conventional antenna yields a bore side gain of 6.59 dB which is further enhanced up to 8.91dB and 7.50 dB by using mushroom-like and slotted EBG surfaces respectively as a ground plane. The proposed rotated Y-shaped antenna and EBG surfaces (mushroom, slotted) are analyzed using the Finite Integration Technique (FIT) employed in Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software. The designed antenna is applicable for future 5G applications.

Application of New Hybrid Jaya Grey Wolf Optimizer to Antenna Design for 5G Communications Systems

The new expected fifth generation (5G) communication systems will serve users with data rates of several Gbps and will allow running new applications in mobile devices. In order to do so, several design challenges have to be met. One of these is the antenna design and fabrication for the 5G mobile devices, especially in the millimeter wave frequencies. In this paper, we address the above issue by designing two different antennas for 3.7 and 26 GHz. We apply a design procedure based on a new proposed evolutionary algorithm, the Grey Wolf Optimizer-Jaya (GWO-Jaya), which combines features from both GWO and Jaya. We evaluate the new algorithm on a set of widely exploited benchmark functions. We design both antennas using the new proposed algorithm. Moreover, we evaluate their performance characteristics through fabrication and measurements. Both antennas are circularly polarized at an acceptable bandwidth and also exhibit wide-band behavior. In both cases, simulation and measurement results are in good agreement.INDEX TERMS mmWave, 5G, mobile communications, patch antenna, optimization methods, evolutionary algorithms, Grey Wolf Optimizer, Jaya algorithm.
