چکیده
This paper presents some hardware implementation results of DOA (Direction Of Arrival) estimator and beamformer developed by our smart antenna project for high speed wireless data transmission. The present system employs smart antenna, FPGA-based digital signal processor and several analog & digital techniques in RF, IF and digital processing, and can estimate DOAs and do beamforming at very high speed and high accuracy. Performance of the present system is evaluated through some experiments.

Optimization Capabilities of LMS and SMI Algorithm for Smart Antenna Systems (RESEARCH NOTE)
In the present paper convergence characteristics of Sample matrix Inversion (SMI) and Least Mean Square (LMS) adaptive beam-forming algorithms (ABFA) are compared for a Smart Antenna System (SAS) in a multipath environment. SAS are employed at base stations for radiating narrow beams at the desired mobile users. The ABFA are incorporated in the digital signal processors for adjusting the weight...
متن کاملHardware Implementation of Signal Processing in Smart Antenna Systems for High Speed Wireless Communication
Smart antennas basically attempt to enhance the desired signal power and suppress the interferers by beamforming toward the DOA (direction-of-arrival) of the desired signal and nullsteering in the case of the interferences’ DOAs in line-of-sight (LOS) situation. This paper considers a smart antenna system for cellular base station application. The signals at the base station are received throug...

In this paper the ”Hardware in a Loop” concept is introduced for the design of wireless communication systems. The aim is to verify the algorithm design at a very early stage of the design flow. This is done by a step-by-step hardware implementation of the simulated algorithms. Signalion provides a rapid prototyping platform to enable this algorithm verification on a hardware with a minimum of ...
