    Smart antennas use an array of antenna elements connected to a digital signal processor that enhances wireless communication capabilities. It can distinguish between propagation paths to separate signals from multiple users on the same channel using space division multiple access. Applications include increased antenna gain and coverage, reduced multipath interference and co-channel interference, and allowing the same frequency band to be reused in more cells. Smart antennas transmit only in the desired direction, receive by looking only in the source direction, and place nulls on unwanted interference for improved mobile communication system performance.

    ABSTRACT
     One of the most rapidly developing areas of communications is
    “Smart Antenna” systems. This paper deals with the principle
    and working of smart antennas.
     The main use of smart antennas in mobile communications that
    enhances the capabilities of the mobile and cellular system such
    a faster bit rate, multi use interference, space division
    multiplexing (SDMA),increase in range, Multi path Mitigation.
     one great advantage that is a very high security. The signal that
    is been transmitted by a smart antenna cannot tracked or
    received any other antenna thus ensuring a very high security of
    the data transmitted.
    INTRODUCTION:

     What is a smart antenna?


     A smart antenna is an array of antenna elements connected to a digital
    signal processor. Such a configuration dramatically enhances the capacity of
    a wireless link through a combination of diversity gain, array gain, and
    interference suppression. Increased capacity translates to higher data rates
    for a given number of users or more users for a given data rate per user.
    PRINCPLE OF WORKING:
     The smart antenna works as follows. Each antenna element
    "sees" each propagation path differently, enabling the
    collection of elements to distinguish individual paths to
    within a certain resolution.
     A smart antenna receiver can decode the data from a smart
    antenna transmitter this is the highest-performing
    configuration or it can simply provide array gain or
    diversity gain to thedesired signals transmitted from
    conventional transmitters and suppress the interference.
     The smart antenna can also separate the signals from
    multiple users who are separated in space but who use the
    same radio channel this application is called Space-
    division multiple access (SDMA).
    APPLICATIONS IN MOBILE
    COMMUNICATIONS:
     Smart antenna is capable of forming transmit/receive beams
    towards the mobile of interest. At the same time it is
    possible to place spatial nulls in the direction of unwanted
    interferences. This capability can be used to improve the
    performance of a mobile communication system.
    Increased antenna gain:
    The ’smart’ antenna forms transmit and receive beams.
    Therefore, the’smart’ antenna has a higher gain than a
    conventional omni-directional antenna. The higher gain can
    be used to either increase the effective coverage, or to
    increase the receiver sensitivity, which in turn can be
    exploited to reduce transmit power and electromagnetic
    radiation in the network.
    Decreased inter-symbol-interference (ISI)
    Multipath propagation in mobile radio environments leads to ISI.
    Using transmit and receive beams that are directed towards the
    mobile of interest reduces the amount of Multipath and ISI.
    Decreased co-channel-interference (CCI)
    ’Smart’ antenna transmitters emit less interference by only
    sending RF power in the desired directions. Furthermore, ’smart’
    antenna receivers can reject interference by looking only in the
    direction of the desired source. Consequently ’smart’ antennas are
    capable of decreasing CCI. A significantly reduced CCI can be taken
    advantage of by Spatial Division Multiple Access (SDMA) o The same
    frequency band can be re-used in more cells, i.e. the so called
    frequency re-use distance can be decreased. This technique is called
    Channel Re-use via Spatial Separation.
    CONCLUSION:

     In conclusion to this paper “Smart Antenna” systems


    are the antennas with intelligence and the radiation
    pattern can be varied without being mechanically
    changed. As the system uses a DSP processor the signals
    can be processed digitally and the performance is with a
    high data rate transmission and good reduction of mutual
    signal interference.
