- 802.11n: MIMO really needs smart antennas
- As Wi-Fi standards go, 802.11n has a lot to live up to, especially after hearing how 802.11n's advertised throughput, security, and reliability will allow Wi-Fi to replace existing wired networks. This means 802.11n's RF technology needs to be rock-solid, just like Ethernet cables, while facing ever-changing environmental conditions. ...

- Cooperative Diversity in Wireless Networks: A Geometry-Inclusive Analysis
- Cooperation between physically separated wireless nodes can achieve the high Signal-to-Noise Ratio SNR diversity gains characteristic of multi-antenna arrays. Simulations indicate that such gains are still achieved for SNRs in the range of practical interest for several applications. Cooperation further yields SNR gains in addition to diversity gains. In contrast...

- Transmit Selection Diversity for Unitary Precoded Multiuser Spatial Multiplexing Systems With Linear Receivers
- Multiuser spatial multiplexing is a downlink transmission technique that uses linear transmit pre-coding to multiplex multiple users and pre-cancel inter-user interference. In such a system the spatial degrees of freedom are used for interference mitigation and generally come at the expense of diversity gain. This paper proposes two pre-coding methods...
