Distributed Antenna Systems Halim Yanikomeroglu Elvino S. Sousa Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering | University of Toronto E-mails: fhalim,[email protected] ABSTRACT | In this study the relationship between the number of antenna elements in a CDMA distributed antenna (DA) system and the yielding reverse link SIR is investigated by taking power control dynamic range into account. In environments hostile to propagation, perfect power control may not be realized with a central antenna (CA), because this would require an impractically high dynamic range. This situation may yield a signi cant decrease in capacity. In such environments, the DA system is an ideal solution, since as the number of antenna elements increases, the dynamic range of the power control decreases. It is demonstrated that by using a DA system with as small as 4 AE's, a capacity increase of almost 30% is achievable, compared to the CA type. However, in a single-cell system once there are a su cient number of antenna elements to implement perfect power control within a reasonable dynamic range, there is no need for additional antenna elements. Also, in a multi-cell system with CA's, the occasional transmissions at very high power levels in order to maintain perfect power control cause signi cant intercell interference. Since with DA such situations are almost eliminated, the intercell interference is kept at a minimal level. Therefore, the DA is an ideal antenna type for both singleand multi-cell systems employing CDMA modulation.

Reverse-link power control in CDMA distributed antenna systems

-It is well known that transmit power control is an essential component of any CDMA system. In conventional cellular systems, the interface between the wired network and wireless medium is the base station antenna (or closely located antennas if there is microdiversity) placed at the geographic center of the cell area. With such a “centralized” antenna, however, it is often impossible to mainta...

Phase Only Synthesis of Antenna Patterns Using Iterative Restoration Methods

In this work, the method of iterative Fourier transform phase reconstruction, conventionally used in holography and optical image reconstruction, is applied to phase only synthesis of antenna patterns. The method is applied to two types of pattern synthesis problems: "main lobe beam shaping" and "side-lobe-level reduction". The proposed method is most useful in the efficient employment of attai...
