spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/12110 Transmit antenna selection in fading wireless communication systems Lupupa, Mzabalazo Dlodlo, Mqhele E Electrical Engineering Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 79-83). To address the drawbacks associated with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, we propose the use of the transmit antenna selection technique. In transmit antenna selection, the best performing antenna(s) is selected from all the available transmit antennas for transmission. Transmit antenna selection reduces the number of radio frequency chains, and the system complexity while still achieving the goals of multiple antenna systems. In this thesis the performance of a MIMO system employing transmit antenna selection and maximal-ratiocombining is studied. 2015-01-13T03:48:44Z 2015-01-13T03:48:44Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12110 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
