Abstract :
An interference and noise cancellation technique based on a reference signal is studied for a compact receiver antenna array placed in an indoor environment. The exact active element pattern method is used to model the radiation characteristics of the array, including mutual coupling between the antenna elements. A two-dimensional ray-tracing technique describes the signal propagation in the indoor environment for a moving receiving antenna.
