Abstract

Performance indicators such as output SNR, SIR, SINR for rectangular smart antennas in CDMA basestations have been derived. Simulations have been carried out to find the rectangular smart antenna performance while varying the input SNR, number of antenna elements, and the interferers' spatial distributions. Simplified Conjugate Gradient Method was chosen as the underlying beam forming algorithm. It has been shown that the performance of a rectangular smart antenna is similar to that of the linear one having the same number of elements when the interferers are randomly distributed over the whole azimuth angle range.

CDMA 셀룰라 망의 기지국에 이용될 수 있는 선형 스마트 안테나를 이차원으로 확장시켜 성능의 척도인 출력 신호대잡음비(Output SNR: Output Signal to Noise Ratio), 출력신호대간섭비(Output SIR: Output Signal to Interference Ratio), 출력신호대간섭잡음비(Output SINR: Output Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio)를 도출 하였다 Beam forming algorithm 으로 SCGM(Simplified Conjugate Gradient Algorithm)을 설정하고 입력신호대 잡음비, antenna element 숫자, 간섭신호의 분포 등을 변화시키며 평면 스마트 안테나의 성능을 simulate 하였다. 간섭신호들의 방위각(Azimuth angle)이 -90도 에서 +90도 사이에서 고르게 분포할 때, 평면 스마트 안테나의 성능은 같은 숫자의 element를 갖는 선형 스마트 안테나의 성능에 근접함을 보였다.
