Abstract [en]

Since down-town areas are rapidly becoming littered with antennas, it is of great interest for operators to keep their contribution of antennas to a minimum. Dual polarized antennas may be a solution to reduce the number of antennas, and still obtain a satisfactory antenna diversity gain. However, in order for them to be competitive with space diversity configurations, the diversity gain obtained using dual polarized antennas must be comparable to the that obtained from space diversity. The purpose of this study is to analyse the diversity performance of a DS-CDMA system employing /spl plusmn/45 /spl deg/ dual polarized antennas, for different environments. A system model is presented and analysed.
