Sectorized multibeam cellular communication systems with dynamic channel assignment to beams is considered. Limitations due to co-channel interference are analyzed. A model for traffic performance is developed using multidimensional birth-death processes. Theoretical traffic performance characteristics such as call blocking probability, channel rearrangement rate and overall carried traffic are determined.

In this paper a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme proposed for single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) system is described. Transmit and receive algorithms are developed for SC-FDMA MIMO systems. A spatial precoding closed-loop transmit beamforming (TxBF) algorithm for SC-FDMA MIMO system which uses singular value decomposition (SVD) at the transmitter and linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) equalization at the receiver is described. Quantization and feedback schemes to support closed-loop operation are discussed. The PAPR effects and a mitigation approach are presented. Simulation results are shown for throughput vs. signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The performance for this new TxBF algorithm is compared to Single-Input-Multiple Output (SIMO) performance. Also, single and dual-codeword performance is considered.
