MIMO antenna systems for 5G and beyond / Xiaoming Chen, Jack Soh, Mohammad S. Sharawi.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

"Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) technology has become a standard in 4th generation wireless systems because of its ability to enhance the channel capacity (data rates) without the increase in the signal power or available bandwidth. In addition, this technology has made use of the multipath phenomena that was considered not desired in previous generations. This book provides the latest methods in developing MIMO antenna systems for 5G wireless communication devices and beyond, including a comprehensive review of system designs such as reconfigurable MIMO, mm-wave band MIMO, and massive-MIMO. The authors break each chapter down by allowing each topic to stand on their own, including Passive MIMO, Active Reconfigurable MIMO, and massive-MIMO antenna systems, providing detailed subsections with the likes of test methods and examples ingrained. This book discusses the fundamentals and characterization methods of MIMO antennas and the recent topics in the field, such as reflective intelligent surfaces (IRS), on-chip and on-package systems, and MIMO antennas for space applications. Supported with MATLAB codes, a large collection of design examples is also included to provide active learning, with additional examples within some chapters, such as an example of 5G massive-MIMO array."-- Provided by publisher.
