摘要：

The effect of the spatial characteristics of antenna array on smart antenna systems can not be neglected. In the paper, the relation between spatial correlation and inter-antenna distance, impinging angle, angle spread is first investigated. With the same beamforming algorithm, we simulate the performance of smart antenna system with different Angle Spread (AS) values on the conditions of ideal and real Angle of Arrival (AOA) estimation. The results show that with the ideal AOA estimation, the AOA is enough accurate to guarantee that the system only has little performance degradation even in the case of 20 degreee AS value while the real AOA estimation influenced by channel environment degrades the performance very obviously, up to about (7?dB.)
