Based on wideband precoding (WBP) in the multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system, an adaptive nonuniform codebook is presented in this paper. The relationship between the precoder distribution and spatial correlation is analyzed at first. A closed-form expression based on overlapped isosceles triangles is proposed as an approximation of the precoder distribution. Then, the adaptive codebook design is derived with the approximate distribution to minimize quantization errors. The capacity and bit error rate performance demonstrate that the adaptive codebook with WBP outperforms the conventional fixed uniform codebook.

Multiple antenna technology, such as multiple input multiple output (MIMO), beamforming is one of the most promising technology for broadband wireless communication. In OFDM environment, we found that as the number of paths is increased, smart antenna system cannot fully exploit beamforming gain. In this paper, we propose a beamforming scheme and analyze the performance of the proposed beamforming scheme in WiBro smart antenna system. WiBro is an OFDMA-based multiple access service for wireless broadband multimedia environment. The proposed beamforming technique for WiBro smart antenna system can effectively improve the performance of the systems in multipath fading environment.
