Abstract

In future mobile communications many antennas will coexist on the device. This creates a number of problems related to bandwidth, efficiency, and correlation. Remedies are discussed in the paper, and attention is called to the promising area of adaptive matching, which also can solve problems related to the user.

Zusammenfassung

In der künftigen Mobilkommunikation werden mehrere Antennen auf einem Gerät vorhanden sein. Dies schafft eine Reihe von Problemen im Zusammenhang mit Bandbreite, Effizienz und Korrelation. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden mögliche Lösungen diskutiert, wobei im Besonderen der zukunftsträchtige Bereich der adaptiven Anpassung betrachtet wird. Diese wird auch in der Lage sein, bestehende anwenderseitige Herausforderungen zu bewältigen.
