Participating and presenting two papers in the IEEE GPECOM 2024

​Two papers have been presented in the IEEE 6th Global Power, Energy and Communication Conference (GPECOM 2024) conference.

​GPECOM2024, focuses on the latest technologies, researches and challenges of power electronics, energy systems and communication technologies. The conference will be held on June 4–7, 2024. The conference venue is Bosch Budapest Innovation Campus in Budapest, Hungary.​​

First Paper:

Title:
Dual-Band Four-element MIMO Side-Edge Antenna for Modern Wireless Communications

Authors:
Mohammad Alsukour, Yanal S. Faouri, and Hamzeh A. AbuHamad​
Abstract:
A dual-band with a four-element MIMO antenna for future 5G mobile applications is presented. The single element antenna consists of several microstrip lines arranged in a way to cover 5G and Wi-Fi 6 bands. The results demonstrate that the intended design has a low mutual coupling of 18 dB and 28 dB for the two bands respectively and has an almost omnidirectional pattern with the maximum gain achieved is 6.63 dB. The proposed antenna has an efficiency (61% 76%), envelope correlation coefficient is much less than (EEC < 0.015), diversity gain (DG > 9.95 dB), mean effective gain (MEG < 3dB), and finally, channel capacity loss (CCL < 0.10 bit/s/Hz). A simulation and analysis have been done using ANSYS HFSS software on a substrate of FR4 with an overall dimension of 150 x 75 x 0.8 mm3. The presented antenna is compared with the existing literature. The suggested antenna will be favorable for coming 5G mobile applications.​



Second Paper:

Title:
Design an OAM Reconfigurable Printed Antenna for Wireless Applications​

Authors:
Hamzeh A. AbuHamad, Yanal S. Faouri, and Noor Awad​
Abstract:
The antenna introduced here describes the design of a printed antenna that is capable of generating multiple orbital angular momenta (OAM) modes. The patch consists of dual concentric rings fed by a hybrid coupler with a cylindrical slot between the top and bottom layers. The configuration of the antenna can be easily designed with reduced size compared to other designs with more OAM states. Four SMA adapters have been engaged and activated correctly to produce several modes. The proposed antenna functions at 2.8 GHz, 3.12 GHz, and 3.52 GHz, which generates OAM modes of (l = ±1, ±2). Results display that the multi-OAM modes have good vortex phase properties. The maximum gain is 3.24 dB, and the overall bandwidth is 950 MHz. The proposed OAM antenna has a promising prospect in 5G wireless communications.
