Abstract

This short paper presents the investigation of Nolen matrix beamforming network usability for capacity enhancement in wireless multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The objective of this research is to thoroughly analyze and develop an analytical and mathematically-oriented investigation into system MIMO capacity improvement using a circuit-based beamformer. The evaluation RF modeling demonstrates the appropriateness to develop a well-established microwave analysis for the wireless RF systems based on the circuit-microwave beamforming networks.
