The suggested MIMO antenna system consists of four identical hexagonal shaped monopole radiators, each is printed on polymide substrate with the size of 1.33 λ0 x 1.03 λ0 where, λ0 is the wave length at centre frequency 4.5 GHz. By placing four antenna elements in orthogonal arrangements independent radiation pattern is achieved thereby increasing isolation better than 17 dB. Specifically, no dedicated mechanism has been introduced to obtain the substantial isolation. All the antenna elements in the MIMO arrangement have broadband operation resonating between 4.4 – 5 GHz covering n79 (New Radio band) 5 G applications. The proposed antenna has a peak gain around 3.8 – 4dBi over the operating frequency with radiation efficiency ranging from 88 to 90%. Since, flexible substrate is used in the design, conformability of the antenna has been verified by performing bending analysis. The MIMO antenna provides better measured results which consistent with the simulated results, therefore the antenna explored in this research could be the better candidate for 5 G conformal and wearable applications.DisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).

Simulations are carried out on a 2D structure with specific trap definitions to analyse the high-frequency figures of merit. The DC and low-frequency AC gains show similar degradation due to the generation of nonideal base current. No significant variation is observed in cut-off frequency mainly due to the minimal effect of HCs on transconductance and base emitter capacitance. However, significant degradation in maximum oscillation frequency is observed primarily because of the rise in base resistance. Finally, S parameter simulations are also carried out to investigate the hot carrier effect on RF characteristics and found that the parameters S11 and S21 are affected by HCs.KEYWORDS: SiGe HBThot carrier degradationhigh-frequency characteristicsS parameters AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to acknowledge the DST, the Government of India, for providing improved infrastructure to the host institution through the FIST project.

The design evolves from a fractal circular patch etched from the metallic square patch to achieve wideband, angular stability, and polarisation insensitivity up to incident angles of 45°. The proposed FSS unit cell has a dimension of 0.2λ0 ×0.2λ0, where λ0 is the free space wavelength corresponding to the resonant frequency. The FSS shield provides dual stopbands centred at 3.5 GHz and 5.9 GHz with fractional bandwidths of 13.4% and 5.08%, respectively. A prototype was fabricated on an FR4 substrate to validate the design, which includes 6 × 6 elements with dimensions of 108.8 mm × 108.8 mm × 1.6 mm. Measurements have shown a consistent shielding effectiveness of 35 dB at the lower band and more than 27 dB at the upper band, which are in good agreement with simulation results. The compact size, simple geometry, and descent shielding effectiveness are the unique features of the proposed design which may be a good choice for 5 G and 6 G communications.KEYWORDS: Frequency selective surfaceelectromagnetic shielddual bandbandstop and microwave frequenciesDisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).

A variety of distinct wireless standards and frequency bands are used in the channelizer. Reconfigurable and non-uniform multi-channels with narrow transition widths are necessary for channelizers. In this paper, a low complexity reconfigurable non-uniform band-generating filter bank (RNBFB) is proposed for multi-band channelizer. The RNBFB is used to generate a variety of non-uniform channels with a narrow transition width. Utilizing frequency response masking (FRM) and the cosine modulation (CM) approach, many non-uniform channels are created. Comparing RNBFB to other state-of-the-art techniques, RNBFB generates multi-bands for channelizer with less multiplier complexities. For the better understanding of hardware complexity, the proposed RNBFB is implemented efficiently. A multiplier-free design such as Canonical Signed Digit (CSD), Multi-Objective Artificial Bee Colony (MOABC), and Shift Inclusive Differential Coefficients (SIDC) with a Common Sub-expression Elimination (CSE) are included in the suggested strategy to further optimize the RNBFB.Keywords: FIR filtersFrequency response masking (FRM)Cosine modulation (CM)DisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).
