Implementation of a Three-class Classification LS-SVM Model for the Hybrid Antenna Array with Bowtie Elements in the Adaptive Beamforming Application (2210.00317v1)

Abstract: To address three significant challenges of massive wireless communications including propagation loss, long-distance transmission, and channel fading, we aim at establishing the hybrid antenna array with bowtie elements in a compact size for beamforming applications. In this work we rigorously demonstrate that bowtie elements allow for a significant improvement in the beamforming performance of the hybrid antenna array compared to not only other available antenna arrays, but also its geometrical counterpart with dipole elements. We have achieved a greater than 15 dB increase in SINR values, a greater than 20% improvement in the antenna efficiency, a significant enhancement in the DoA estimation, and 20 increments in the directivity for the hybrid antenna array with bowtie elements, compared to its geometrical counterpart, by performing a three-class classification LS-SVM (LeastSquares Support Vector Machine) optimization method. The proposed hybrid antenna array has shown a 3D uniform directivity, which is accompanied by its superior performance in the 3D uniform beam-scanning capability. The directivities remain almost constant at 40.83 dBi with the variation of angle {\theta}, and 41.21 dBi with the variation of angle {\phi}. The unrivaled functionality and performance of the hybrid antenna array with bowtie elements makes it a potential candidate for beamforming applications in massive wireless communications.
