5G Mobile Communications

In this proposed paper, a single band microstrip patch antenna for fifth generation (5G) wireless application was presented. 28, 38, 60 and 73 GHz frequency bands have been allocated for 5G mobile communications by International Telecommunications Union (ITU). In this paper, we proposed an antenna, which is suitable for the millimeter wave frequency. The single band antenna consists of new slot loaded on the radiating patch with the 50 ohms microstrip line feeding used. This single band antenna was simulated on a FR4 dielectric substrate have relative permittivity 4.4, loss tangent 0.02, and height 1.6 mm. The antenna was simulated by Electromagnetic simulation, computer software technology High Frequency Structural Simulator. And simulated result on return loss, VSWR, radiation pattern and 3D gain was presented. The parameters of the results well coherent and proved the literature for millimeter wave 5G wireless application at 38 GHz.

Echo Return Loss Enhancement

In this paper, several combination algorithms between Partial Update LMS (PU LMS) methods and previously proposed algorithm (New Variable Length LMS (NVLLMS)) have been developed. Then, the new sets of proposed algorithms were applied to an Acoustic Echo Cancellation system (AEC) in order to decrease the filter coefficients, decrease the convergence time, and enhance its performance in terms of Mean Square Error (MSE) and Echo Return Loss Enhancement (ERLE). These proposed algorithms will use the Echo Return Loss Enhancement (ERLE) to control the operation of filter's coefficient length variation. In addition, the time-varying step size is used.The total number of coefficients required was reduced by about 18% , 10% , 6%, and 16% using Periodic, Sequential, Stochastic, and M-max PU NVLLMS algorithms respectively, compared to that used by a full update method which  is very important, especially in the application of mobile communication since the power consumption must be considered. In addition, the average ERLE and average Mean Square Error (MSE) for M-max PU NVLLMS are better than other proposed algorithms.

Aim:: Computation of loss factors for one-bit RF MEMS switch over Ku, K and Ka-band for two different insulating substrates. Objective:: Numerical investigation of return loss, insertion loss, isolation loss are computed under both actuated and unactuated states for two different insulating substrates of the 1-bit RF MEMS switch, and corresponding up and down-capacitances are obtained. Methods:: The unique characteristics of a 1-bit RF MEMS switch of providing higher return loss under both actuated and unactuated states and also of isolation loss with negligible insertion loss makes it as a prime candidate for phase shifter application. This is presented in this manuscript with a keen focus on improvement capability by changing transmission line width, and also of overlap area; where dielectric constant of the substrate also plays a vital role. Results:: The present work exhibits very low down-capacitance over the spectrum whereas considerable amount of up-capacitance. Also when overall performance in terms of all loss parameters are considered, switch provides very low insertion loss, good return loss under actuated state and standard isolation loss. Conclusion:: Reduction of transmission line width of about 33% improved the performance of the switch by increasing isolation loss. Isolation loss of -40 dB is obtained at actuated condition in higher microwave spectra for SiO 2 at higher overlap area. Down capacitance of ~ 1dB is obtained which is novel as compared with other published literature. Moreover, a better combination of both return loss, isolation loss and insertion loss are reported in this present work compared with all other published data so far.
