Performance of M-QAM multiple antenna systems at 60 GHz

Abstract

In this work, the performance of a 60 GHz communication system employing a multiple antenna equalization scheme to suppress both the intersymbol interference and multiple-access interference is analyzed. A spectrally efficient multilevel quadrature amplitude modulation and a realistic IEEE channel model are used for analysis. The combined effect of interference suppression and spatial correlation on the system performance is studied through an analytically derived expression for bit error rate.
