In this paper, the calibration problem of an asynchronous CDMA-based antenna array is studied. A new iterative calibration algorithm for antenna array in the presence of frequency offset error is presented. The algorithm is applicable to a non-linear array and does not require a prior knowledge of the (direction of arrivals) DOAs of the signals of any user, and it only requires the code sequence of a reference user. The algorithm is based on the two step procedures, one for estimating both channel and frequency offset and the other for estimating the unknown array gain and phase. Consequently, estimates of the DOAs, the multi-path impulse response of the reference signal sources, and the carrier frequency offset as well as the calibration of antenna array are provided. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated by means of computer simulations and is verified by using field data measured through a custom-built W-CDMA test-bed.

In this paper, the performance of an adaptive array antenna using Constant Modulus Algorithm (CMA) based on the signal structure for the IMT-2000 3GPP specification reverse link of an asynchronous direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system are evaluated. In addition, the performance is compared with the array antenna using Least Mean Square (LMS) based on the training signal. The simulation parameters such as the number of multipath, mu10pa1h intensity profiles between path, spreading gain and multiuser etc., are considered in the Monte Carlo simulation. Simulation results demonstrate an adaptive array antenna using CMA may give more capacity gain than the amy antenna using LMS in the case of multipath fading channel.

In this paper, we propose a new method that combines antenna array, which employs any beamforming algorithm, and successive interference cancelling multiuser detector which improves the performance of the receiver and analyse its performance. Antenna away receivers can improve the performance by spatially discriminating among the users and reducing the multiple access interference. But the performance of the receivers degrades when the difference of the direction of arrival of the users are too small. Many interference cancelling multiuser detectors have been suggested for DS/CDMA systems which have low complexity for their performance. In this paper, we show how to mitigate such a degradation by combining successive interference cancelling multiuser detector.

In this paper, performance of multicode DS/CDMA packet radio network with adaptive antenna array is analyzed and simulated in a multipath Rayleigh fading channel. The network performance is evaluated in terms of packet throughput. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the adaptive antenna array is very effective in improving the packet throughput performance of the multicode DS/CDMA packet radio network. The results of this paper can be applied to design of IMT-2000 or future-generation mobile communication systems.

In this paper, the reverse link performance of an imperfect power controlled DS/CDMA cellular system that uses a base station array antenna which can effectively remove the multiple access interference is analyzed considering both beam forming algorithm and power control error in shadowing. The blocking probability of the DS/CDMA cellular system based on array parameters, Eb/No and statistics of interference is derived, and then the system capacity corresponding to a certain blocking probability is calculated. On the assumption that the blocking probability is set 1 ％, the system capacity using MCGM algorithm with 12 antenna arrays is increased about 59 % than that using 8 antenna arrays when power control error is 2.5 ㏈.

This paper presents a performance analysis of experimental observations of a uplink smart antenna system operating in a wide-band CDMA environment designed for a WLL (Wireless Local Loop) system. The numerical results shown in this paper have been obtained from practical experiments using commercially developed mobile terminals. The beam pattern provided by the weight vector and the resultant BER (Bit Error Rate) are observed in both indoor and outdoor signal environments. From the experimental observations, it is concluded that the proposed smart antenna system provides significant improvements in receiving both indoor and outdoor signal environments.

In this paper, we analyze the effect of imperfect power control on the capacity of the reverse channel in CDMA cellular system with antenna arrays in the base station. For imperfect power control, we assume that the received power at the base station from the users within each cell has log-normal distribution, and we also consider the effect of imperfect power control of co-channel interferences which arise from both its own cell and outer cells. From the result of numerical analysis, we show that the degree of power control gives a great influence on the capacity of CDMA celluar system with antenna arrays, and also that antenna arrays at the base station can improve greatly the system capacity even when the power control is imperfect.

A hybrid MIMO(Multi Input Multi Output) antenna which is operating both a monopole and a IFA(Inverted F Antenna) is designed. It's applied Vlade(Vertical lade) technique to reduce antenna space, and a diagonally fed MIMO antenna is designed on the bare board for the data communication. Return losses due to variables of antenna length are simulated for the design. Antenna for the hexa-frequency band of LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA is designed and implemented.
