Elevation Optimized Antenna Arrays for Future Cellular Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A pattern shaping synthesis method along with a new sidelobe shaping scheme are used to design antenna arrays capable of delivering a much better radiation performance in terms of homogenous coverage and reduced interference with respect to commercial antennas. For verification, radiation within an urban scenario for the region inside and outside the cell has been studied with the aid of a 3D ray-tracing simulator. Results show a 15% radiation reduction outside the cell for the synthesized antenna with respect to commercial antennas under equal coverage conditions.

Design of High Altitude Platforms Cellular Communications
Cellular communications using high altitude platforms (HAPs) will predominate the existing conventional terrestrial or satellite systems but requires some optimization especially in the cellular radio coverage design. The design of HAPs cellular system suffers from increasing cell area when directing the same beam to cover lower elevation regions and therefore requires some modification in its ...
متن کاملOn the Optimum Directivity of Uniformly Spaced Broadside Arrays of Parallel Half-Wave Dipoles (RESEARCH NOTES)
The nominal directivity for uniformly spaced broadside parallel half-wave dipoles associated with a uniform excitation is evaluated. The amplitude distribution for an optimized directivity is then obtained for different numbers of elements with the separations between the dipoles as a variable. The optimum and nominal directivities are compared for different spacings of the elements. While thes...
متن کاملSynthesis of Antenna Arrays of Maximum Directivity for a Specified Sidelobe Level
Linear and planar antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified sidelobe level. The directivity is maximized subject to a given SLL. The beamwidth and the zeros of array factor are studied as well as the directivity. Maximum directivity-arrays are compared through some examples with super-directive, uniform, Dolph-Chebyshev and Riblet-Chebychev arrays to find a comp...

The array element consists of a rectangular microstrip patch with appropriate dimensions in the vicinity ...
متن کاملA New GE/PSO Antenna Arrays Synthesis Technique and Its Application to DoA Estimation
Direction of arrival estimation has a noteworthy significance in numerous applications, such as radar systems, smart antennas, sonar, mobile communications, and space communications. The algorithms used to estimate the direction of arrival are to some degree complex and time consuming. Also, the number of antenna elements is a discriminating parameter for assessing the performance of the DoA te...
