SISO Systems



Conventional Single Input Single Output
(SISO) systems were favored for simplicity and
low-cost but have some shortcomings:
Outage occurs if antennas fall into null
Switching between different antennas can help
Energy is wasted by sending in all directions
Can cause additional interference to others
Sensitive to interference from all directions
Output power limited by single power amplifier

MIMO Systems





Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems
have certain advantages over SISO systems:

Outages reduced by using information from multiple
antennas
Transmit power can be increased via multiple power
amplifiers
Higher throughputs possible
Transmit and receive interference limited by some
techniques

Bits
MIMO systems (contd.)





It is an antenna technology that is used both in
transmission and receiver equipment for wireless radio
communication.
Multiple data streams transmitted in a single channel at
the same time
Multiple radios collect multipath signals
Delivers simultaneous speed, coverage, and reliability
improvements
Works on the concept of Spatial Multiplexing

Spatial Multiplexing for MIMO
systems
Form multiple independent links (on same channel)
between transmitter and receiver to communicate at
higher total data rates.
However, there are cross-paths between antennas.
The correlation must be decoupled by digital signal
processing algorithms.

Objective of term paper
To study MIMO technology, compare it
with SISO systems and attempt to
implement one research paper on MIMO
technology, especially applications of
MIMO technology in 4G wireless systems.
