This research article reports a compact fractal 4 × 4 UWB extended bandwidth MIMO antenna with physical dimensions of 44 × 44 mm2 for high-speed wireless applications. The reported antenna comprises four fractal radiating elements that are symmetrical and placed orthogonal to each other with a respective rectangular ground printed on the opposite plane. A higher isolation is achieved between the radiating elements by the placement of a fractal patch orthogonally and no separate decoupling structure is required. The antenna offers a −10 dB transmission capacity of 2.84–15.88 GHz. The fractal radiating element, which is embedded by an inverted T-type stub placed within a rectangular slot and an etched rotated C-type slot, provides band-stop filters for WiMAX (Worldwide inter-operability for Microwave Access) and WLAN (wireless local area network)-interfering bands. The key parameters of diversity performance are compared by simulation and measurement (fabricated prototype) of ECC (envelope correlation coefficient), DG (directive gain), TARC (total active reflection coefficient) and CCL (channel capacity loss). The antenna offers an omnidirectional radiation pattern with an average gain of 3.52 dBi.

In this paper, a linear and circular polarized antenna with operating frequency at 2.4 GHz for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) application is proposed. Firstly, a basic linear polarization antenna (Design A) was designed with rectangular slot at the rectangular patch and air gap between substrate and copper layer with distance of 10 mm. Next, in order to perform circular polarized, the antenna designed is added with optimized dual circular notch at the rectangular slot. This circular polarized antenna is designed with two different polarization types which are right-handed circular polarization (RHCP) with optimized dual circular notch at the patch (Design B) and left-handed circular polarization (LHCP) with optimized dual circular notch at the patch (Design C). The proposed antenna had been designed and simulated by using Computer Simulation Technology (CST) Microwave Studio Suite. The comparison result of simulation and measurement show that the proposed antenna can achieve axial ratio above 3 dB for linear polarized and below 3 dB for circular polarized with return loss less than -10 dB.

AbstractIn this work, simple, low profile, compact quarter-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (QMSIW)-based antennas are proposed for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) at 5.2/5.5 GHz and Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) at 5.8 GHz, respectively. By implementing QMSIW technique, the electrical size of the antenna is reduced up to 1/4th of the conventional circular SIW cavities. Thanks to the quarter mode concept, the antenna size is reduced significantly by preserving its dominant mode. The resonant frequency of the dominant mode TM010 is independently tuned at 5.2, 5.5, and 5.8 GHz after loading the QMSIW cavity with metalized via holes, subsequently. The on-body performance of the antenna is verified on pork tissues at 5.8 GHz and it is found to be insensitive with respect to surroundings. The measured gain and simulated efficiency of the proposed antenna at 5.8 GHz in free space are 4.8 dBi and 92%, while in the proximity of pork tissues values are 3.25 dBi and 57%, respectively. Moreover, the measurement results demonstrate a good matching with the simulation results.

The combination of a high-speed wireless network with passive optical network technologies has led to the evolution of a modern integrated fiber wireless (FiWi) access network. Compared to broadband wireless networks, the FiWi network offers higher bandwidth with improved reliability and reduced maintenance costs due to the passive nature of passive optical network (PON). Since the quality of service (QoS) is a baseline to deploy high-speed FiWi broadband access networks, therefore, it is essential to analyze and reduce the typical problems (e.g., bandwidth and delay) in the high-speed next-generation networks (NGANs). This study investigates the performance of a fiber wireless architecture where a 10-Gigabit-capable passive optical network (XGPON) and fifth generation of wireless local area network (WLAN) (i.e., IEEE 802.11ac) are integrated. Both technologies take benefits from each other and have pros and cons concerning the QoS demands of subscribers. The proposed work offers a very flexible QoS scheme for the different types of services of 5G WLAN and XGPON with the help of the highest cost first (HCF) algorithm, which leads to reduced upstream delays for delay-sensitive applications. The simulation results show that the HCF algorithm boosts the performance of the dynamic bandwidth assignment (DBA) scheme and results in up to 96.1%, 90.8%, and 55.5% reduced upstream (US) delays for video: VI(T2), background: BK(T3), and best effort: BE(T4) traffic in enhanced-distributed-channel-access (EDCA) mode. Compared to earlier work, the HCF and immediate allocation with the colorless grant (IACG) DBA combination results in the reduction of up to 54.8% and 53.4% mean US delays. This happens because of 50% to 65% better bandwidth assignment by the IACG DBA process due to efficient mapping by the HCF algorithm.

In recent years, great interest is focused on microstrip antennas for their small volumes, low profiles, good integration, low costs and good performance. With the continuous growth of wireless and mobile communication service and the constant miniaturization of communication equipment, there are higher demands for the volume of antennas, integration and working band. This paper presents a basic rectangular shaped microstrip patch antenna for wireless communications system which is suitable for 4.54 GHz to 5.632 GHz band operations. These systems may include upper higher bands of WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) and wireless local-area network (WLAN). A rectangular ring slot is cut and double T shape along with one inverted beaker slot is embedded into it. Besides that, in the inverted beaker shape, similar shape slot is cut. This design has several advantages such as compact size, omnidirectional radiation pattern etc. which all are studied. The results confirm good performance of the single and multiband antenna design.

The next generation Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) IEEE 802.11be regards Extremely High Throughput (EHT) as its core technology goal, among which multi-band capability and AP cooperation technology are regarded as its key technologies. However, the existing research on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) protocol does not consider the multi-band capability and AP collaboration technology of IEEE 802.11be, so the improvement of system performance is limited and does not meet the EHT requirement. Especially when the nodes in overlapping coverage area have a large number of traffic, it is more important to improve the throughput of nodes in overlapping coverage area. In order to improve the throughput of nodes in overlapping coverage area, this paper proposes a spatial clustering group OFDMA protocol associated with multiple Basic Service Sets (BSSs). The protocol allows nodes in overlapping coverage area to be associated with multiple BSSs at the same time by using multi-band capability, that is, multi-association; Using AP collaboration technology allows nodes to perform parallel backoff with channels on multiple BSSs to improve access efficiency. Nodes in the overlapping coverage area are associated with the channels of multiple BSSs for parallel backoff. Node completed backoff and successfully accessed triggers a spatial clustering group (SCG) with close to its spatial location. OFDMA mode is used by SCG to access and transmit, thus increasing the access opportunities of nodes within overlapping coverage, thereby improving the throughput. The simulation results show that using the SCG-OFDMA protocol proposed in this paper associated with two BSSs, its throughput of nodes within overlapping coverage can achieve 353.41% higher than the IEEE 802.11ax protocol and 558.33% higher than the OMAX protocol respectively.
