This mode is mainly based on the increase of the Q factor for the closely-positioned MIMO antenna elements. With the increased Q factor, each element becomes a scatter for the other elements. Consequently, without adding any structure in the MIMO system, the radiation patterns will be separated to achieve a low correlation (even close to zero) in LTE 700 MHz bands. In practice, this high Q factor is realized through better impedance matching, which makes this mode quite easy to excite. When the effective MIMO element distance is larger than a certain value, better matching (higher Q factor) can not only reduce the correlation but also improve the efficiency (even though the mutual coupling becomes stronger).","PeriodicalId":178493,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125083859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And moreover with a practical seven-beam antenna pattern, we firstly develop a novel simulation algorithm based on geometric relations to performance analysis. It is shown that system capacity is reduced with the increase of two types of Power Control Error (PCE): PCE for shadowed user and PCE for unshadowed user, but the capacity degradation caused by PCE for shadowed user is larger than the others; In addition the method of power overcompensate in power control can improve the system performance only within limits. Finally, the throughput and delay is also affected by PCE, however, the effect of PCE in high traffic is opposite to that in low traffic.","PeriodicalId":178493,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127133284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transmission characteristic of the antenna pair with a wireless charging antenna positioned between the antenna pair is investigated over the frequency band of 3 - 5 GHz. It is found that the loop antenna features a limited effect on the transmission response while the spiral antenna causes the transmission response to change drastically across the frequency band. It is suggested that a loop antenna, compared to a spiral antenna, is a more efficient wireless charging antenna for an implanted radio system and causes less effect on the transmission between the external and the implanted antenna pair.","PeriodicalId":178493,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129786269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
