The term smart antenna refers to any array or antenna, which can adapt or adjust its beam pattern according to a desired criterion. Diversity effect includes the reception and transmission of multiple radio frequency waves to decrease the error rate and to boost data speed. They increase the capacity while enabling the transmission of various data streams from dissimilar antennas, reduce interferences, and have the ability to improve link quality by overcoming the effect of multi path propagation. Thus, these antennas offer benefits such as higher capacity, spectral efficiency and extended coverage and range.
The global smart antenna market is segmented into type, technology, application, end user, and region. Based on type, the market is further segmented into adaptive array antenna and switched multibeam antenna. In terms of technology, the market is bifurcated into Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO), Multiple input single Output (MISO), Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). By applications, the market is subdivided into cellular, broadband, Wi-Fi, WiMax, and others.
