Design and Performance of Adaptive Antenna System in LTE 3GPP Transceivers Based Fourier Signals in ITU Channels

Abstract

3G LTE is next generation step in mobile communications with the promise of peak download rates of at least 100 Mbit/s and upload rates 50 Mbit/s. The evolved version of Long Term Evolution is LTE-Advanced which is being developed by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). LTE-Advanced will meet or go beyond the requirements of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) for the fourth generation (4G) radio communication standard. In this paper, we investigate the performance of Adaptive Antenna System in the LTE 3GPP Transceivers. Adaptive Antenna System (AAS) has been developed to adaptively correct antenna impedance mismatch for the LTE 3GPP Transceivers. (AAS)  has been deployed at the receiver module to reduce the fading effects caused by proposed channels model. (AAS) uses various beamforming techniques to focus the wireless beam between the base station and the subscriber station. In this work, the transmitter (SS) and receiver (BS) are fixed and AAS installed at the receiver is used to direct the main beam towards the desired LOS signal and nulls to the multipath signals. Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm is used. It has been proved through MATLAB simulations that the performance of the system significantly improves by AAS in  International Telecommunication Union (ITU) channels , where beamforming is implemented in the direction of desired user. The performance of the system more increases by increasing the number of antennas at receiver.
