    Smart antennas combine antenna arrays with digital signal processing to optimize transmission and reception patterns automatically based on the signal environment. There are two main types: switched beam antennas which select from predetermined fixed beams, and adaptive array antennas which adjust their pattern in real-time. Smart antenna systems provide benefits like increased signal gain and interference rejection, enabling improvements to coverage, capacity, and quality of wireless networks. They allow cellular operators to boost performance and reduce costs.

    Presentation on

    SMART ANTENNA
    By P.Ranthu Kumar

    What is Smart Antenna?


    A smart antenna system combines multiple antenna elements with a signal-processing capability to optimize its radiation and/or reception pattern automatically in response to the signal environment. In truth, antennas are not smartantenna systems are smart. Generally co-located with a base station, a smart antenna system combines an antenna array with a digital signal-processing capability to transmit and receive in an adaptive, spatially sensitive manner.

    Types of Smart Antenna systems


    Smart antenna systems are customarily categorized, as either switched beam or adaptive array systems. Switched beama finite number of fixed, predefined patterns or combining strategies (sectors) Adaptive arrayan infinite number of patterns (scenario-based) that are adjusted in real time

    Switched Beam Antennas


    It form multiple fixed beams with heightened sensitivity in particular directions. These antenna systems detect signal strength, choose from one of several predetermined, fixed beams, and switch from one beam to another as the mobile moves throughout the sector. switched beam systems combine the outputs of multiple antennas in such a way as to form finely sectorized (directional) beams with more selectivity .

    Adaptive Array Antennas


    Adaptive antenna technology represents the most advanced smart antenna approach by using a variety of new signal-processing algorithms.

    It provides optimal gain while simultaneously identifying, tracking, and minimizing interfering signals.

    The goals of a smart antenna system


    The purpose of a smart antenna system is to augment the signal quality of the radio-based system through more focused transmission of radio signals while enhancing capacity through increased frequency reuse.

    The features of a smart antenna system are


    - signal gain. - inference rejection. -power efficiency.

    Architecture of smart antenna system


    Switched beam and adaptive array systems enable a base station to customize the beams they generate for each remote user effectively by means of internal feedback control.

    Who can use smart antennas ?


    Smart antenna technology can significantly improve wireless system performance and economics for a range of potential users. It enables operators of PCS, cellular, and wireless local loop (WLL) networks to realize significant increases in signal quality, capacity, and coverage.

    Advantages of smart antenna


    Smart antennas can help systems meet requirements in the following manner: these

    First, both phased and adaptive arrays provide increased power by providing higher gain for the desired signal. In terms of interference suppression, phased arrays reduce the probability of interference with the narrower beam, and adaptive arrays adjust the beam pattern to suppress interference.

    Uses of smart antenna


    Phased arrays are mainly being studied for point-topoint wireless systems, e.g., for wireless local loops. Adaptive arrays are being considered on cellular terminals where local scattering causes wide angular spread.

    In the TDMA system ANSI-136 adaptive antenna algorithms have been widely deployed.

    Conclusion
    The use of smart antennas is not purely a radio transmission issue.

    It also influences network services such as handover and connection setup.


    A smart antenna is a digital wireless communications antenna system that takes advantage of diversity effect at the source (transmitter), the destination (receiver), or both.
