Performance Enhancement for B5G/6G Networks Based on Space Time Coding Schemes Assisted by Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces with Higher Modulation Orders.

Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRS) and Multiple-Input Single-Output (MISO) technologies are essential in the fifth generation (5G) networks and beyond. IRS optimizes the signal propagation and the coverage and is a viable approach to address the issues caused by fading channels that limits the spectral efficiency, while MIMO enhances data rates, reliability, and spectral efficiency by using multiple antennas at both transmitter and receiver ends. This paper proposes an IRS-assisted MISO system using the Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code (OSTBC) scheme to enhance the channel reliability and reduce the Bit Error Rate (BER) in wireless communication systems.

Compact UWB MIMO Antenna for 5G Millimeter-Wave Applications.

This paper presents a printed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with the advantages of compact size, good MIMO diversity performance and simple geometry for fifth-generation (5G) millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) applications. The antenna offers a novel Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) operation from 25 to 50 GHz, using a Defective Ground Structure (DGS) technology. Firstly, its compact size makes it suitable for integrating different telecommunication devices for various applications, with a prototype fabricated having a total size of 33 mm × 33 mm × 0.

Cluster-Based Multi-User Multi-Server Caching Mechanism in Beyond 5G/6G MEC.

The work on perfecting the rapid proliferation of wireless technologies resulted in the development of wireless modeling standards, protocols, and control of wireless manipulators. Several mobile communication technology applications in different fields are dramatically revolutionized to deliver more value at less cost. Multiple-access Edge Computing (MEC) offers excellent advantages for Beyond 5G (B5G) and Sixth-Generation (6G) networks, reducing latency and bandwidth usage while increasing the capability of the edge to deliver multiple services to end users in real time.

Performance analysis of serial relay orbital satellite optical communication over turbulent channels.

Optical space communication has been proven to be a reliable relay satellite transmission system. The difficulty that occurs in RF satellite communication (SatCom) can be alleviated by using free-space optical (FSO) or laser SatCom. In this work, we analyze a proposed laser downlink relay SatCom model with existing channel turbulence employing intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD), and amplify-and-forward (AF) technology and compare it with the optical direct link SatCom.

MOM/GA-Based Virtual Array for Radar Systems.

This paper introduces a novel antenna array synthesis for radar systems based on the concept of a virtual antenna array (VAA) and the method of moments/genetic algorithm (MoM/GA) synthesis method. The VAA concept is applied to both scanning and fixed radiation pattern arrays. The proposed VAA is introduced to simultaneously support the medium-range radar (MRR) and the long-range radar (LRR) with beam width ±7° for LRR and ±37° for MRR.
