Spatial multiplexing and Receive Diversity in Wimax

Spatial multiplexing and Receive Diversity in Wimax Spatial multiplexing WiMAX also supports spatial multiplexing, where multiple independent streams are transmitted across multiple antennas. If the receiver also has multiple antennas, the streams can be separated out using space-time processing. Instead of increasing  diversity, multiple antennas in this case are used to increase the data rate … Read more

Advanced Antenna Systems,Transmit diversity and Beamforming in Wimax

Advanced Antenna Systems,Transmit diversity and Beamforming in Wimax Advanced Antenna Systems The WiMAX standard provides extensive support for implementing advanced  multiantenna solutions to improve system performance. Significant gains in overall system capacity and spectral efficiency can be achieved by deploying the optional advanced antenna systems (AAS) defined in WiMAX. AAS includes support for a variety … Read more

Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) in Wimax

QAM symbols are represented by the carrier signal being transmitted with specific phase (90°)/amplitude (dictated by the message), for finite periods of time. QAM constellations (patterns) 2 QAM (Binary PSK – BPSK) Two symbols are defined (1 amplitude; 2 phases) Every symbol transmitted over the transmission channel represents (carries) 1 message bit. Baud rate = … Read more

Angular Spread and Coherence Distance calculation for Wimax

Angular Spread and Coherence Distance calculation for Wimax Calculation Angular Spread and Coherence Distance is very easy let’s see. So far, we have focused on how the channel response varies over time and how to quantify its delay and correlation properties. However, channels also vary over space. We do not attempt to rigorously treat all … Read more
