Next-Generation Antennas: Advances and Challenges
暫譯: 下一代天線：進展與挑戰

天線設計和無線通信最近經歷了歷史上最快的增長期，這些趨勢在可預見的未來可能會持續下去。由於最近在工業應用以及天線、無線通信和5G技術方面的進展，我們目睹了各種正在發展和擴展的新技術。緊湊且低成本的天線正在增加對下一代（5G）無線通信系統和物聯網（IoT）超寬頻帶的需求。為了實現下一代高頻通信，各種方法已被引入，以實現可靠的高數據速率通信鏈路並增強平面天線的指向性。5G技術可以應用於許多領域，例如智慧城市應用和智能手機。這項技術能夠滿足移動寬頻通信中用戶和流量容量的快速增長。

因此，具有智能波束成形能力的不同平面天線在這些領域中扮演著重要角色。本書的目的是介紹下一代天線通信系統中天線的先進技術、發展和挑戰。本書涵蓋了下一代天線設計和應用領域的進展，提供了對尖端發展和其他新興主題及其在所有工程領域應用的詳細概述，這些領域在下一代天線的進步和挑戰的幫助下實現了卓越的準確性和性能。

無論是希望跟上該領域最新進展和發展概念的資深工程師的複習，還是新進工程師的入門，或是學生和教職員的教科書，這本開創性的全新著作都是任何圖書館的必備之選。
