Smart antennas and their applications in wireless communications 2009年9月 24日 ( 1 Fujian Pinghe Telecommunications Bureau, Fujian Pinghe 363700 ; 2 Zhejiang Mobile Communications Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Kangzhou 310003 : 3 Jiangsu Radio Management Committee, Nanjing 21018 ; 4 Department of Communication Engineering, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing 210003 )Abstract: Smart antennas that use digital signal processing technology to form directional beams have attracted great attention from wireless communication engineers. Based on the traditional understanding of antennas, the authors expound the basic concept, characteristics, implementation methods and application prospects of smart antennas. Keywords: smart antenna; wireless communication; Space Division Multiple Access; Adaptive Antenna; Application Overview Antenna is an essential device for electromagnetic wave propagation: the signal transmitter uses antenna to radiate electromagnetic waves, and the signal receiver uses antenna to sense electromagnetic waves. Therefore, no matter what kind of communication system, as long as it uses wireless transmission, antenna must be used, and no matter what working frequency the system uses, what frequency band it belongs to, and no matter what multiple access technology or modulation technology is used, antenna is indispensable. With the development of communication and the advancement of technology, the requirements for the devices and components used are getting higher and higher. Smart antenna is a new thing that adapts to the development of communication. It has important applications in wireless access systems, satellite communication systems, mobile communication systems, military communication systems (whether in public communication networks or in special communication networks), and thus brings a series of advantages such as greatly improved anti-interference ability and frequency utilization rate. Although smart antenna still plays the role of electromagnetic wave radiation and induction, smart antenna is a brand-new concept, and communication engineering technicians should be familiar with and understand it as soon as possible...
