Burr We present an implementation of a mobile-WiMAX m-WiMAX base station BS that supports smart antenna SA functionality. To implement the m-WiMAX SA BS we must address a number of key issues in baseband signal processing related to symboltiming acquisition the beamforming scheme and accurate calibration. We propose appropriate solutions and implement an m-WiMAX SA BS accordingly. Experimental tests were performed to verify the validity of the solutions. Results showed a dB link-budget enhancement on the uplink compared to a single antenna system. In addition the experimental results were consistent with the results of the computer simulation.

Introduction Modern mobile communication requires not only a high data rate transmission but also a relatively fast mobility. The mobile WiMAX m-WiMAX based on orthogonal frequency division multiple access OFDMA is believed to be a solution that addresses both of these requirements 1 . Moreover the application of smart antenna SA technologies to OFDMA is regarded as a key solution for increasing the data rates and the mobility of fourth generation 4G wireless .
