Abstract :
Simulated HIPERLAN/2 physical layer results are contrasted using wideband measurements for omnidirectional and sectorised antennas. Gains as high as 13.4 dB are observed using a 60° sectorised antenna. Results demonstrate sectorised antenna improvements for all environments, even those where spatial filtering reduces the degree of frequency selective fading
