Abstract(in English) Adaptive Array Antenna (AAA) with wide element spacing shows interference suppression as well as diversity effect against multi-path fading, because correlation of received signals in each antenna elements becomes low. In a time-division duplexed (TDD) system, weighting factors that are determined for signal reception in the up-link can be used for the down-link transmission, because of the reciprocity in this system. Thus an AAA placed only at a base station improves transmission performance in both up- and down-link. In a frequency-division duplexed (FDD) system, however, we can not enjoy the benefit, since frequency are different between the up- and the down-link and therefore the reciprocity never holds. In this paper, we study a feedback type AAA system for FDD systems. Computer simulation results showed that in an FDD system the AAA placed only at base station can cope with co-channel interference and fading for down-link when feedback control delay time is shorter than fading period. Moreover, we applied our system to a handoff mechanism and obtained better bit error rate performance.
