© 2021 IFIP.Enabling ultra high speed wireless communication, Extreme High Frequency (EHF) or Millimeter Wave (mmWave) bands will play a significant role for the 5G. Apart from speed, 5G will be very useful for handling great amounts of data simultaneously and serving bandwidth hungry applications as well. Ultra high quality and ultra fast video streaming will be one of those applications that will be made possible by 5G. While serving bandwidth hungry applications with ease will be an important development and maximizing throughput is most of the time the main goal in a network, it is also important to make sure that no other application starves. In order to prevent such a situation, fair bandwidth allocation should be considered in wireless communications. We simulated a max-min fair bandwidth allocation scenario in a mmWave radio cluster, where a radio cluster is a set of base stations connected to a main hub over 60 GHz radio links. We ran experiments with different path loss exponent values with increasing number of base stations to examine the effects of topology complexity and radio signal loss on the optimization time and on the overall network throughput while maintaining max-min fair allocation. The results showed that as the topology becomes more complex, the problem takes longer to solve. However, the overall network throughput increases. In addition, our model has achieved a decent quantitative fairness level as shown by Jain's index values, which are always more than 0.5 on a scale of 0 to 1 with respect to the topology complexity and the number users.

Dual-Polarization Wideband Sub-6 GHz Suspended Patch Antenna for 5G Base Station
Ciydem, Mehmet; Miran, Emre A. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-07-01)
This letter presents a simple, compact, low-cost, low-profile, dual-polarization, suspended patch antenna design to operate in 3.3-3.8 GHz band for 5G base stations. The proposed antenna comprises a main radiating patch, a secondary parasitic patch, modified L-probe feeds, and a vertical metal wall. The main patch is capacitively driven by two feeds for dual (+/- 45 degrees slant) polarization. The vertical metal wall is used to increase the port isolation. The parasitic patch also helps further improvement...
Wideband Channel Estimation With a Generative Adversarial Network
Balevi, Eren; Andrews, Jeffrey G. (2021-05-01)
Communication at high carrier frequencies such as millimeter wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) requires channel estimation for very large bandwidths at low SNR. Hence, allocating an orthogonal pilot tone for each coherence bandwidth leads to excessive number of pilots. We leverage generative adversarial networks (GANs) to accurately estimate frequency selective channels with few pilots at low SNR. The proposed estimator first learns to produce channel samples from the true but unknown channel distribution v...
Non-Foster impedance matching for electrically small antennas
Altuntaş, Orhun Tevfik; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019)
At low frequencies, non-Foster matching improves the performance of ESAs and overcomes the limitations imposed by the electrical size of antenna. Thus, the major objective of this thesis is to design and implement a non-Foster matching network in order to improve the bandwidth of an ESA beyond the levels that cannot be reached by conventional passive matching. Negative impedance converters (NICs), which are specific circuits to realize negative circuit elements, are used to design such non-Foster circuits. ...
Differential K-band vector modulator IC design at 180 NM CMOS SOI process
Güngör, Ömer Fevzi; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Koçer, Fatih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019)
Massive MIMO and beamforming are technologies that may enable ultrafast 5G network. They are predicted to be used widely in next-generation high capacity communication systems. In the implementation of beamforming and MIMO, the large number of antennas and RF control components are utilized. However; some challenges related to power consumption, control complexity, cost, and size of transceiver have arisen. Vector Modulator (VM) may be one possible effective solution to these challenges because it merges th...
Design of Tunable Amplifier Using Digital Capacitors
Atilla, Dogu Cagdas; Aydin, Cagatay; Nesimoglu, Tayfun; KÖPRÜ, RAMAZAN; Aksen, Ahmet; Yarman, B. S. (2014-12-14)
In recent days, radio manufacturers are increasingly interested in broadband amplifiers for cellular communication. Demands of customers enforce manufacturers to develop systems compatible for all standards and it is mandatory to accommodate more than one amplifier or tunable amplifier in front end of communication systems. In this paper, design of tunable amplifier is investigated by using Real Frequency Technique and agility of tunable components is provided by digital tunable capacitors.
