Compact massive MIMO antenna array for small 5G base stations

Massive MIMO for 5G

Massive MIMO is the currently most compelling sub-6 GHz physical-layer technology for future wireless access. The main concept is to use large antenna arrays at base stations to simultaneously serve many autonomous terminals, as illustrated in Figure 1. The rich and unique propagation signatures of the terminals are exploited with smart processing at the array to achieve superior capacity. Mass...

A Compact Dual Element PIFA Array for Wireless MIMO Advanced TDD LTE Applications

MIMO systems have been developing in recent past as a solution to high speed and reliable data communication problems.

In this paper, a compact dual-element PIFA array is presented for MIMO LTE applications. The MI...

Dual Polarized Omnidirectional Array Element for MIMO Systems

The capacity of a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system depends on the channel matrix as well as the Signal-to-Noise ratio. A novel dualpolarized planar channel model with one or two scattering rings is used to compare the capacity of different antenna arrays. The correlation between channel matrix elements of the presented channel model and the statistical Kronecker model is also compar...
