MIMO systems, phased array antennasAbstract
In this paper, a computer simulation of a MIMO system comprising phased array antennas (PAA) in all receiving branches is presented. In order to examine the system performance under relatively realistic conditions, a ray-tracing simulator was applied to generate a baseband channel impulse response matrix H. A bit error rate (BER) of two systems utilizing different detection methods: V-BLAST and simple matrix inversion was examined in order to determine phased array antennas applicability. Results of an attempt to determine relationship between BER and properties of particular matrix H realization are also provided.
