Abstract This study presents a fractal inspired ultra wideband (UWB) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna design framework integrated with multi objective optimization for next generation 5G, IoT, and wireless communication systems. Addressing critical challenges of mutual coupling, limited isolation, and excessive hardware complexity in dense array deployments, we employ Pareto front analysis to systematically characterize fundamental trade offs in sparse array synthesis.

Abstract This research document comprehensively examines terahertz (THz) communications leveraging orbital angular momentum (OAM) for next generation 6G wireless systems. It establishes that OAM provides an additional spatial multiplexing dimension, thereby enhancing spectral efficiency beyond conventional techniques. However, the analysis reveals fundamental physical constraints limiting practical deployment. Key findings demonstrate that THz propagation is governed by a dual loss mechanism: free space path loss and severe... Read More

Abstract This study investigates machine learning approaches for customer churn prediction and segmentation in the telecommunications sector, addressing the critical business challenge of subscriber retention amid rising acquisition costs. Leveraging the Telco Customer Churn dataset, comprising 7,043 customer records with 21 demographic, service usage, and billing attributes, we implement a dual method framework that combines supervised classification and unsupervised clustering. A Support Vector Machine (SVM)... Read More
