5G technology is the future of communication, with data speed capabilities that are much faster than current 4G technology. However, there are limiting factors of 5G that has delay the transition from 4G to 5G. One of which being the propagation capability of 5G waves through medium. Hence, this project focus on studying the characteristic of 5G wave propagation through dielectric materials that could be use for smart building in the future. In this project, iron oxide (Fe2O3) of different amount is added into mortar samples. These samples are then tested, and results are analysis to see how the addition of Fe2O3 would affect the dielectric properties of the mortar.
