This paper proposes the design of microstrip patch antennas for dual-band polarization adjustment. The antenna has a multi-layer structure for dual-band operation, and each layer contains a resonating patch with surrounding strips separated into two parts. The antenna polarization is adjusted by varying the separated positions of the strips, while fixing other design parameters. To demonstrate the feasibility, an antenna sample with right-hand circular polarization is fabricated, and its antenna characteristics are measured in a full anechoic chamber. The operating principle of polarization adjustment in the dual frequency bands is also verified by observing near electromagnetic fields and the magnetic surface current density around the antenna.

Recently, in order to improve high speed data transmission and spectral efficiency in wireless communication systems, the study on the combination OFDM and space-time coding is active. Also, a solution to improve system capacity in multiuser systems is to use adaptive antennas. In a system using STBC, the signals transmitted from two transmit antennas are superposed at the receive antenna and the interference between two transmit antennas of a user occures. Thus it is difficult to apply the conventional beamforming techniques for single antenna to the systems using space-time coding. In this Paper, we present the MMSE beanforming technique using training sequence for STBC-OFDM systems in reverse link and evaluate the performance by using various parameters in TU and HT channels.

In this paper, an adaptive interference canceller (AIC) Is applied to the space-time coded DS-CDMA system in fading channels with arrival time difference from multiple transmit antennas In a CDMA system, arrival time difference causes not only inter-antenna and Inter-symbol interference but also multiple-access Interference even in a downlink. To mitigate the effect of the Interferences an AIC and ML decoding joint scheme Is proposed fur a space-time coded DS-CDMA system in which an adaptation process of tile AIC is merged in the Viterbi decoding algorithm. The performance of the proposed receiver is evaluated for the system with two transmit antennas. It is shown that the proposed receiver achieves significant performance improvement over the ML decoding receiver without the AIC

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems can achieve the increasing of performances by using an adaptive power allocation. The related previous work limited the transmit antenna number because orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBCs) yield full transmit rate only for two transmit antennas. We extend a robust system under imperfect channel estimation for four transmission antennas with maintaining a full transmission rate.

The reduction of energy consumption at the base station (BS) has become more important recently. In this paper, we consider the adaptive muting of the antennas based on the predicted future traffic load to reduce the energy consumption where the number of active antennas is adaptively adjusted according to the predicted future traffic load. Given that traffic load is sequential data, three different RNN structures, namely long-short term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM) are considered for the future traffic load prediction. Through the performance evaluation based on the actual traffic load collected from the Afghanistan telecom company, we confirm that the traffic load can be estimated accurately and the overall power consumption can also be reduced significantly using the antenna musing.

In this paper, we proposed an HF-band wireless power transfer system with adaptive frequency control circuit for efficiency enhancement in a short range. In general, a wireless power transfer system shows an impedance mismatching due to a reflected impedance, because a coupling coefficient is varied with respect to separation distance between two resonating loop antennas. The proposed method can compensate this impedance mismatching by varying input frequency of a voltage-controlled oscillator adaptively with respect to separation distance. Therefore, transmission efficiency is enhanced in a short distance, where large impedance mismatch occurs. The adaptive frequency circuit consists of a directional coupler, a detector, and a loop filter. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed system, a wireless power transfer system with adaptive frequency control circuits is designed and implemented, which has a pair of loop antennas with a dimension of 30${\times}$30 $cm^2$. From measured results, the proposed system shows enhanced efficiency performance than the case without adaptive frequency control.

In this paper, Adaptive Modulation and Coding (AMC) is combined with Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) multiplexing to improve the throughput performance of AMC. In addition, a system that adopts Selection Transmit Diversity (STD) in the AMC-MIMO multiplexing system is proposed. The received SNR is improved by adopting STD techniques. And it increases probability of selecting MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme) level that supports higher data rate. This leads to an increased throughput of the AMC-MIMO system. STD in our simulation selects 2 transmission antennas from 4 antennas and AMC-MIMO multiplexing process operates with the selected antennas. The computer simulation is performed in flat Rayleigh fading channel. The results show that the proposed system achieves a gain of 1Mbps over the AMC-MIMO multiplexing system with the same number of antennas at 15dB SNR.

For driver's convenience, the ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) requires a system which controls the vehicle to keep the distance among the automobiles constant. This paper describes the microstrip array antennas designed to operate at 24 GHz, and used as a direction indicator of moving vehicles. $8{\times}2$ transmit away antenna with wide beamwidth, $8{\times}4$ receive center array antenna, and two $8{\times}8$ receive array antennas with narrow beamwidth were designed. The measured result shows that the designed array antennas arc suitable fur detecting 3 directions of the vehicle when the scan angle is within the restricted area.

To accommodate various mobile communication frequency bands, the study of metamaterial antennas have begun since the mid-2000s to solve the Trilemma problem between antenna gain-occupied bandwidth-size. As an adaptive reconfiguration function is required in a multi-array antenna system since 4G, the metamaterial array antenna using low-power variable elements has been used to change the basic structure of the antenna. Recently, reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), which is made of metasurface with reconfigurability, has been studied to effectively cope with the randomly varying radio channels and be used for various purposes such as reflection/transmission/modulation. As a result of RIS-related patent information analysis in this study, it was confirmed that most of the patents are metamaterial antennas and metamaterial array antennas, but the metasurface antenna technology was in the early stages. Particularly, as the intelligent metasurface antenna is in a more initial stage, the investment to R&D of RIS is urgent to secure patent competitiveness in B5G and 6G.

In this paper, we have investigated the adaptive sector antenna which can control the size and direction angle of sectors, and proposed the three sectorization algorithms which are based on distribution of users, distribution of codes and distribution of signal power, respectively. The BERs of each sectorization algorithms are compared through computer simulation. As results of the simulation, the sectorization algorithm based on signal power are better than the other in terms nf BER. We have simulated error performance the DS-CDMA/BPSK system with the antenna in AWGN, frequency non-selective Rayleigh fading and MAI channels.
