ABSTRACT
In recent years, various studies have focused on massive MIMO systems, which are considered to play an important role in 5G. Massive MIMO systems are MIMO systems in which the decoders and/or probes contain very good antennas. A larger number of antennas allows for higher performance and higher energy efficiency. Several types of antennas can be used for this purpose, one of which is called smart antennas. Smart antennas allow for increased capacity in wireless communication systems by reducing multi-channel interference and channel interference, which can be done by focusing the signal radiation in the intended direction and varying that radiation according to the signal’s surroundings or different interference situations using beamforming technology. This project report will present beamforming techniques, beamforming algorithms in 5G networks, and evaluate some beamforming algorithms for adaptive array antennas applied in 5G networks.
