With the above antenna schemes OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) is a suitable selection for 4G. This paper proposes a multibeam antenna combining OFDMA for the next generation mobile communications. Analysis and simulation show that this kind of antenna is comparable to MIMO scheme and can be applied to 4G. date: 2012-10-10 date_type: published full_text_status: none pres_type: paper pagerange: 227 -230 event_title: 2012 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC 2012) event_location: Hanoi, Vietnam event_dates: 10-12 October 2012 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE citation: Tran, Cao Quyen and Trinh, Anh Vu (2012) The Application of a Multibeam Antenna for 4G.
