Research Cluster - Wireless Communications for 5G/6G
1. This cluster has demonstrated the experiments, design, simulations, fabrications, test results, and the
works produced at RF, Microwave and Communication Systems Laboratory. The team uses modern
tools consisting of Pathwave Advanced Design System (ADS) Update 2023 software, and Network
and Spectrum analyzers.

Modern wireless communication infrastructure requires low profile, lightweight, high gain, and low
noise antennas to assure reliability, mobility, and high efficiency. Here, the technique uses a patch
antenna in terms of constructions simplicity applying the microstrip fabrication methods. In our study,
we are focused on uniformly linear, planar and circular patch arrays where it can provide linear and
circular polarisation which is desired especially in the physical layer of networks node of 5G/6G
mobile communications. Our team put efforts into several designs of array antennas for Smart antenna
configurations at millimeter-wave in the applications that require beam forming with enhanced
adaptive techniques.
