MIMO systems provide various benefits such as Spatial Diversity, Spatial Multiplexing to improve the system performance. In this paper the MIMO SM system is analysed for different antenna configurations (2×2, 3×3, 4×4) in Rician channel. The performance of the MIMO SM system is investigated for higher order modulation schemes (M-PSK, M-QAM) and Zero Forcing equalizer is employed at the receiving side. The simulation results points that if antenna configurations are shifted from 2×2 to 3×3 configuration, an improvement of 0 to 2.9 db in SNR is being noted and an improvement of 0 to 2.9 db is visualized if antenna configurations are changed from 3×3 to 4×4 configuration.

A primary factor in their use F 1.08 has been the ability to make the support structure of the antenna an integral part of the transmitting components. Because the 1.07 frequencies assigned to UHF allow the use of relatively small 1.06 antenna elements, the removal of part of the pipe wall to create 1.05 slots was possible with only a minimal impact an its structural VSWR integrity.

Antenna plays a crucial role in this communication system, which is used to transmit and receive the data. The classification of the antenna is based on the specifications like frequency, polarization, radiation, etc. In this we will observe some important point about microwave antenna in communication network, relay stations, transmission system, interconnection cable and inter-operations performing as an integrated whole. KEYWORDS: Microwave Antenna, Types of Antenna, Properties of Antenna, Applications of Antenna. I. INTRODUCTION The main purpose of this research to help people know many things about microwave antenna use in communication system. Microwaves are widely used for point-to-point communications because their small wavelength allows conveniently-sized antennas to direct them in narrow beams, which can be pointed directly at the receiving antenna. This allows nearby microwave equipment to use the same frequencies without interfering with each other, as lower frequency radio waves do.

  • Inexpensive Microwave Antenna Demonstrations Based on the IEEE Presentation by John Kraus – Jon Wallace
    Inexpensive Microwave Antenna Demonstrations Based on the IEEE Presentation by John Kraus – Jon Wallace Abstract: After seeing a video of John Kraus giving a demonstration on radio antennas to the IEEE many years ago, the author was so inspired that he researched the concepts and sought to reproduce as much of the demonstration as he could. It is hoped that these demonstrations will educate and inspire others to explore as well. They cover topics which include: beam width, inverse square law, polarization, reflection, refraction, interference, absorption, gain, wave guides, diffraction, and more. The equipment used consists of a Gunn diode source with horn antenna and a WR-90 horn antenna with crystal detector, instrumentation amplifier, and voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) so that changes in intensity will be heard as pitch changes. Safety Although these microwave frequencies are not the ones used for cooking, they can still cause damage to eyes and sensitive areas of the body. When I started this project I searched for the most stringent safety recommendations I could find for a 10 mW transmitter at about 10 GHz. This recommendation was to keep a minimum distance of 60 cm. (2 ft.). I also designed an aluminum-screened mask that can be worn when presenting the demonstrations. It completely blocks all radiation from the transmitter. Close-up pictures and hints on making one are included at the end of this document. Stay safe! The Equipment The various demonstration devices will be described in each section and building tips are included at the end of the paper. The basic equipment consists of a transmitter (a Gunn diode device) with a larger horn and regulated 8V power supply powered by a 9V battery, a receiver with a small horn antenna, crystal detector, instrumentation amplifier, voltage controlled oscillator, and powerful speaker.

  • Simple Antenna Can Help Kick Costly Cable TV Habit
    Simple antenna can help kick costly cable TV habit By Gregory Karp, Chicago Tribune [email protected] Terrain, trees and buildings can affect signals and the type of antenna that works best at your location. (Comstock Images) As more people rethink ways to get television programming outside the traditional cable and satellite companies, the unsung TV antenna is becoming a fundamental component of their cord-cutting strategy. That makes sense. Not only are broadcast TV signals free, but even a simple antenna can produce the best picture you've ever seen on your TV because the high-definition signals are less compressed than through cable or satellite. And new flat, wall-mounted indoor antennas are a cinch to install and far less offensive aesthetically than the old rabbit ears — some can be affixed to a window behind drapes, for example. And with a one-time cost of about $50 for about 50 channels — including almost all of the most popular 50 shows — the switch is a frugal- spender's delight. HBO recently announced it would offer streaming online HBO service without a cable or satellite subscription, removing yet another reason people remain tethered to a paid-TV provider. ESPN, perhaps the largest hurdle to cutting cords, reportedly is looking into the same thing. Antenna sales spiked several years ago with the switch to digital broadcast signals, but the antenna business has continued to flourish, said Ian Geise, senior vice president of Voxx Accessories, the largest seller of TV antennas under such names as Terk and RCA. "It's really been this shift in mindset for people and (their) television entertainment," he said.

  • Microwave Antenna Holography
    Chapter 8 Microwave Antenna Holography David J. Rochblatt 8.1 Introduction The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)–Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Deep Space Network (DSN) of large reflector antennas is subject to continuous demands for improved signal reception sensitivity, as well as increased transmitting power, dynamic range, navigational accuracy, and frequency stability. In addition, once-in-a-lifetime science opportunities have increased requirements on the DSN performance reliability, while needs for reduction of operational costs and increased automation have created more demands for the development of user friendly instruments. The increase in the antenna operational frequencies to X-band (8.45 gigahertz (GHz)) and Ka-band (32 GHz), for both telemetry and radio science, proportionately increased the requirements of the antenna calibration accuracy and precision. These include the root-mean-square (rms) of the main reflector surface, subreflector alignment, pointing, and amplitude and phase stability. As an example, for an adequate performance of an antenna at a given frequency, it is required that the reflector surface rms accuracy be approximately /20 (0.46 millimeter (mm) at Ka-band) and that the mean radial error (MRE) pointing accuracy be approximately /(10*D), or a tenth of the beamwidth (1.6 millidegrees (mdeg) for a 34-meter (m) antenna at Ka-band). Antenna microwave holography has been used to improve DSN performance. Microwave holography, as applied to reflector antennas, is a technique that utilizes the Fourier transform relation between the complex far- field radiation pattern of an antenna and the complex aperture distribution. Resulting aperture phase and amplitude-distribution data are used to precisely 323 324 Chapter 8 characterize various crucial performance parameters, including panel alignment, subreflector position, antenna aperture illumination, directivity at various frequencies, and gravity deformation effects.

  • Outdoor Antenna Installations
    Outdoor Antenna Installations Congratulations! Your new antenna will give you the best possible digital and HD picture quality (yes, even better than cable or satellite). Today, local digital TV (DTV)—including HDTV—is available over the air using this antenna. Over-the-air signals are not compressed like cable or satellite transmissions and THEY’RE FREE! Here are a few simple tips to make the installation as easy as possible and optimize the performance of your new antenna. While your new antenna will allow you to receive local over-the-air (OTA) digital TV stations, it will not provide cable or satellite channels. After local OTA signals are received by your antenna, the digital signals must be decoded, so your DTV set can display a digital picture. To watch true HDTV, you must have: • Programming originating (produced) and broadcast in HDTV (Not all programming from your local station or cable or satellite channels is broadcast in HD - consult your local programming guide) • An HDTV tuner (receiver) • An HDTV monitor (display). There are currently 3 ways to decode these local DTV stations utilizing this antenna: 1. An HDTV set with a built in digital tuner. Most TVs sold after 2007 will have these built in. If the owner’s manual does not specifically state a digital tuner is included, you will need to purchase an ATSC set top box. 2. An over-the-air digital tuner (Often called a set-top box). 3. An HD satellite tuner. Both Dish Network® and DIRECTV® offer HDTV satellite receivers with the over-the-air digital tuner built-in.

  • Abstract- the Space Shuttle Ultra High Frequency (UHF)
    Source of Acquisition NASA Johnson Space Center Shian U. Hwu, Justin A. Dobbins, Yin-Chung Loh, Quin D. Kroll, and Catherine C. Sham Abstract- The Space Shuttle Ultra High Frequency (UHF) communications system is planned to provide Radio Frequency (RF) coverage for astronauts working underside of the Space Shuttle Orbiter (SSO) for thermal tile inspection and repairing. This study is to assess the Space Shuttle UHF communication performance for astronauts in the shadow region without line-of-sight (LOS) to the Space Shuttle and Space Station UHF antennas. To insure the RF coverage performance at anticipated astronaut worksites, the link margin between the UHF antennas and Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Astronauts with significant vehicle structure blockage was analyzed. A series of near-field measurements were performed using the NASNJSC Anechoic Chamber Antenna test facilities. Computational investigations were also performed using the electromagnetic modeling techniques. The computer simulation tool based on the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction (GTD) was used to compute the signal strengths. The signal strength was obtained by computing the reflected and diffracted fields along the propagation paths between the transmitting and receiving antennas. Based on the results obtained in this study, RF coverage for UHF communication links was determined for the anticipated astronaut worksite in the shadow region underneath the Space Shuttle. Shian U.
