Abstract
The main advantage of ESPAR antenna is that ESPAR antenna requires only a single RF chain for reduction of transceiver's hardware complexity, as compared to conventional MIMO system. In conventional MIMO system, each data symbol is mapped to each antenna. But, each data symbol is mapped to each orthogonal basis pattern in ESPAR antenna system. In this paper, we design beamspace MIMO system using ESPAR antenna with single RF chain for MIMO system of low-complexity and low power consumption. And then, we analyze performance of beamspace MIMO according to each PSK modulation. Performance of beamspace MIMO system is similar to performance of conventional MIMO system. As a result of analyzing the performance of beamspace MIMO system using higher-order PSK modulation. we can confirm that performance characteristic of beamspace MIMO system with low complexity and low power consumption is similar to digital communication of signal domain.
