Abstract :
Mobile transmit diversity (MTD) technology can provide beam forming benefit and result in an additional diversity gain on the top of the traditional diversity gain from the multiple antennae. The MTD technology also benefits the network capacity by reducing the interference to the neighboring cells (sectors). In this paper, we present the measurement results of the 42% and 45% increases on the reverse link capacity by the MTD mobiles for the cdma2000 1x (PCS) and EVDO (cellular) networks, respectively
