In latest days, 5G technology has undergone fast development and has since found widespread use in a variety of industries including medicine, travel, agriculture, and others. The 5G network's fundamental equipment, known as 5G ground stations, are responsible for achieving wireless signal transfer among wired communications systems and wireless endpoints. Additionally, 5G stations give communication range. Nevertheless, as the size of 5G ground stations continues to progressively develop, difficulties such as inadequate coverage area and subpar user experiences commonly arise. As a result, it is essential to conduct an all-encompassing performance evaluation of 5G ground stations in order to better understand the challenges that now exist in the development of ground stations. To begin, the components of the performance assessment index system, which include operating efficiency, economic condition, ecological effects, and social pressure, are assembled from their respective vantage points. In the next step, a unique hybrid multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach that is built on the AHP methodology is used. In conclusion, ten 5G base stations are selected as samples for further investigation. The AHP is integrated with the Interval Valued Neutrosophic Sets (IVNSs). The IVNSs used to overcome incomplete and vague information. The AHP method used to compute the weights of criteria.
