Reconfigurable reflectarrays for 5/6G wireless systems with linear polarization
St. Petersburg Polytechnical University Journal: Physics and Mathematics. 2023. Vol. 16. No. 3.2. P. 372–376.
Numerous studies on wireless technologies for the fifth and sixth generation networks are widely conducted at the moment. They are driven by potential opportunities of digitalization in the information society era. Further enlargement of data transfer rates is required to enhance virtual interactions in various public areas via appearance of new services and applications. In this work, we report on the development of a reconfigurable reflectarray for 5/6G wireless communication systems with linear polarization. The proposed reflectarray utilizes current controlling diodes in a metallic screen inserted in between of front and rear metallizations of a planar patch antenna array. This makes it capable of a digital beam steering on a microsecond scale. Performance of the reflectarray designed for operation at 15 GHz is described in terms of numerical simulations and prototyping. We also discuss prospects and technological challenges of fabricating a scaled-down version of the reflectarray for 150 GHz operation.

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm. This background will pose a serious problem, when measuring spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background, in particular, the mu-distortion, which presumably has an intensity of less than ...

Sub-terahertz frequency band is beneficial for radio access networks of the sixth generation. Due to rather limited power capacity, there appears a necessity to equip transmitters and receivers in sub-terahertz wireless channels with high directivity antennas. This, however, leads to a potential connection failure in response to even a minor linear or angular displacement of ...
