Abstract :
An optimal high site base station antenna, consisting of a 16-element array has been synthesized with the Orchard-Elliott algorithm. The synthesis results from the definition of an ideal elevation pattern based on a set of evaluation criteria, which link CDMA system performance with a simplified propagation model. The use of these simplified criteria and propagation model to adequately represent a CDMA cellular system is validated with help of a full Ray-tracing simulator.
