The high-level architecture of a 5G small cell typically includes the following components: Radio access network (RAN): The RAN includes the small cell base station, which provides wireless access to user devices via radio signals. The small cell base station communicates with the core network over a high-speed backhaul connection.
The deployment of small cells can improve network coverage, capacity, and quality of service for wireless users. Small cells are essential for 5G networks, which require high-frequency bands and low-latency connections. 5G networks rely on a dense network of small cells to provide ultra-fast speeds and low latency to users.
The small cell base station communicates with the core network over a high-speed backhaul connection. Core network: The core network manages the overall operation of the small cell network, including authentication, authorization, and routing of user traffic.
As networks become more complex and 5G systems require more network coverage, implementing several antenna designs in SBSs presents unique challenges related to performance and compactness. This paper discusses 5G SBS antenna designs that have been proposed recently and studies their characteristics with the parameters that enhance the performance.
To address the growing demand, 5G technology is being implemented at a larger scale. Small-cell Base Station (SBS) antennas are crucial for exploring the full potential of 5G networks by expanding the network in urban areas, densely populated regions, indoor environments, and low-coverage zones.
5G NR (new radio) networks are not expected to be operational until at least 2020, which means 5G mobile devices will not show up until after 5G networks are incorporated. Small cells help in this pre-5G/LTE-Advanced Pro (LTE-A Pro) transition because they: Help improve the performance of mobile handsets.
