| Summary: | Array signal processing, as one important topic of classical signal processing, has been developed for a long time. High resolution array processing algorithms have been used in sonar and radar systems for target location estimating and tracking. In recent years, applications of antenna arrays have been suggested for wireless communication systems to overcome the problem of limited channel bandwidth, thereby satisfying an ever-growing demand for a large number of mobile users in communication channels. It has been shown by many studies that when an array is appropriately used in a mobile communication system, it helps in improving the system performance by increasing channel capacity and spectrum efficiency and extending range coverage. In this the-sis, we will propose some schemes to incorporate array signal processing techniques into wireless communication systems, especially, for advanced Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) communication systems.
