ABSTRACT
Single-carrier frequency domain adaptive antenna array (SC-FDAAA) has been proposed and proved to be effective in suppressing multiple access interference (MAI) in a severely frequency selective fading channel. We studied the performance of SC-FDAAA in a distributed antenna network (DAN). In order to make it clear whether the performance of SC-FDAAA can benefit from the distributed nature of DAN or not, a comparison is made between DAN and the traditional cellular network, i.e., central antenna network (CAN). This talk will cover the principle of FDAAA and its application to the DAN system and show the capacity of DAN FDAAA.
