Full-Duplex Femto Base-Station With Antenna Selection: Experimental Validation

Base station antenna selection for LTE networks

Antenna Selection in Full-Duplex Cooperative NOMA Systems

We investigate the problem of antenna selection (AS) in full-duplex (FD) cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems, where a multi-antenna FD relay assists transmission from a multi-antenna base station (BS) to a far user, while at the same, the BS transmits to a near user. Specifically, based on the end-to-end signal-to-interferenceplus-noise ratio at the near and far users, two...

High Capacity Adaptive Base-station Antenna Systems

The deployment of cellular systems is a success and as the number of subscribers grows, service providers may experience capacity problems due to limited frequency spectrum. Consequently, service providers need to find methods to enhance the coverage and capacity of their networks. Today’s systems are optimally designed for supporting speech traffic in circuit-switched services. The introductio...

Light-Weight Base Station Antenna with Artificial Wire Medium Lens

In this paper we study the possibility of utilizing a loaded wire medium as an artificial material for beam shaping element in base station antenna applications. The wires in the lattice are loaded with a proper capacitive impedance to come up with a structure effectively operating as a dielectric lens at the UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) frequency range. It is proven with f...
