Simulation and Evaluation of a Simple Adaptive Antenna Array for a WCDMA Mobile Communication

Abstract

 This paper presents a uniform Linear Array model of a simple adaptive antenna array based on signal-tointerference and noise ratio (SINR) maximization. The SINR using the adaptive antenna array was investigated for a conventional narrowband beam former by varying the number of antenna array elements and number of interfering signals or users. The results obtained were compared with that of omnidirectional antenna. The graph obtained from the results showed significant improvement in SINR as the number of antenna elements increases in the presence of large interferers for odd numbered array.
