Abstract

Multiantenna transceivers have received a considerable attention when developing next generation wireless communication systems. In this chapter we discuss different alternatives of utilizing multiple antennas in commercial wireless communication systems. By multichannel adaptive beamforming we understand a concept where the receiver estimates multiple channels and communicates partial channelstate information to the transmitter. We concentrate on the most cost-efficient alternative with multiple transmit antennas in the base station and a single receive antenna in the mobile station. Furthermore, we present the closed-loop transmit diversity modes included in the current WCDMA specification.
