Funded Activity Summary

Empowering 5G Infrastructure with Collocated 3G/4G/5G Base Station Antennas. The Australian government has decided to support the timely rollout of fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems due to their potential for producing far-reaching economic and social benefits. This infrastructure rollout requires a quick, efficient deployment of the associated 5G base stations. The integration of 5G antenna arrays into existing 3G/4G base stations would alleviate the substantial cost increases and negative environmental impacts tied to acquiring new sites for them. This project aims to develop the theory and engineering methodologies necessary to successfully address the significant scientific challenges posed by the detrimental interference effects associated with the compact integration of 3G/4G/5G arrays.
