Capacity Evaluation of a High Altitude Platform Diversity System Equipped with Compact MIMO Antennas

چکیده
In this paper we address the potential gain of using compact MIMO antenna array configurations in conjunction with High Altitude Platforms (HAPs) diversity techniques in order to increase the capacity in HAP communication systems. For this purpose, we also propose a novel compact MIMO antenna which we denote as the “MIMOOctahedron” and compare its performance with the vector element antenna. Simulation results show that the MIMO-Octahedron antenna provides superior performance to the vector element antenna and the single HAP case.

Analysis of compact Arrays for MIMO based a on complete RF System Model
A model for an extended MIMO transmission channel including transmitter, receiver, antennas and the physical channel is presented. For the analysis of compact MIMO systems for small handheld devices, it is inevitable to consider this extended model, since the antennas couple and interact, which influences both SNR and the channel matrix H. Capacity calculations for diversity and beamforming bas...

A complete multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system with orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) based on multiple excitation modes for a single circular microstrip antenna is introduced. Traditional diversity techniques such as spatial diversity by means of a linear antenna array or polarization diversity by means of a crosspolarized antenna array may prove to be un...
متن کاملA Low-Profile Dual-Polarized Directional Antenna for Enhancing Channel Capacity in Indoor MIMO Systems
Large channel capacity is achieved by MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology with multi-antenna at the transmitting and receiving side [1]. Many studies to maximize the MIMO channel capacity have been performed, and measurements show that channel capacity is enhanced by directional antennas [2] and multi-polarization [3] in indoor environment. Various MIMO antennas with pattern and po...
متن کاملIterative Successive MMSE Multi-User MIMO Transmit Filtering
In this paper we introduce a novel linear precoding technique. It was previously reported in the literature that when the user terminals are equipped with one antenna, minimum mean-squared-error (MMSE) in combination with successive interference cancellation is optimum on the uplink, while MMSE precoding in combination with Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) is optimum on the downlink. The lin...

In this paper, a cooperative algorithm to improve the orthogonal space-timefrequency block codes (OSTFBC) in frequency selective channels for 2*1, 2*2, 4*1, 4*2 MIMO-OFDM systems, is presented. The algorithm of three node, a source node, a relay node and a destination node is formed, and is implemented in two stages. During the first stage, the destination and the relay antennas receive the sym...
