Abstract

Microstrip antenna arrays Dipole antennas Transmitters Switches Interference Antennas and propagation MIMO Ad hoc networks Computer networks Antenna radiation patterns
In this paper we investigate the performance of reconflgurable antennas in an MIMO ad-hoc network. The nodes employ the multiuser waterfllling (known also as iterative waterfllling) power allocation [1], [2] method and we use network sum capacity as a performance metric. We study a centralized configuration selection scheme, which can be used as an upper bound in the sum capacity using reconflgurable antennas, as well as a simple distributed configuration selection scheme, suitable for use in an ad-hoc MIMO network.
