Adaptive Antennas and MIMO Systems for Mobile Communications

  • Chapter
Adaptive Antenna Arrays

Part of the book series: Signals and communication technology ((SCT))

Abstract

Among the radio technologies with the potential to push the fron-tiers of wireless communications, adaptive antennas seem to be the most pro-mising. Antenna array processing dates back to World War II (e.g. the Buttler matrix, in 1935) but more sophisticated adaptive signal processing emerged in the 60’s and only in the 90’s the technique attracted considerable attention from the research community in the context of cellular communications.

This chapter presents an overview of adaptive antennas covering a wide range of issues like basic principles, space-time channels models, different adaptive antenna methods and algorithms, multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems, benefits and performance, downlink beamforming and net-work planning. Many of the references cited here can be found in [1].
