Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the performance of an adaptive smart antenna system (SAS) in multipath environments. Experiments were performed to validate for the single user case. The multiple user case is also considered for several wireless communication environments, with code division multiple access (CDMA). Throughout the computer simulations, the bit error probabilities are presented for the systems using the singular value decomposition (SVD) method and the proposed method
