Heath Jr. A novel beamforming BF system that employs two switched beam antennas SBAs at both ends of the wireless link in an indoor double-directional radio channel DDRC is proposed. The distributed directivity gain DDG and beam pattern correlation in DDRC are calculated. The channel capacity of the BF system is obtained from an analytical model. Using the channel capacity and outage capacity as performance measures we show that the DDG of the BF system directly increases the average signal-to-noise ratio SNR of the wireless link thus achieving a direct increase of the ergodic channel capacity. By jointly switching between different pairs of transmit Tx and receive Rx directional beam patterns towards different wave clusters the system provides diversity gain to combat against multipath fading thus reducing the outage probability of the random channel capacity. Furthermore the performance of the BF system is compared with that of a multiple-input multiple-output MIMO system that is set up using linear antenna arrays. Results show that in a low-SNR environment the BF system outperforms the MIMO system in the same clustering DDRC. Copyright 2007 Chen Sun et al.
