Member Function Documentation

virtual cs::CVector mimo::AntennaArray::get_steeringVector (  size_t  N, double  alpha )  const [virtual]

Returns the steering vector for the incoming angle alpha and a geometry with N elements as implemented in a derived class.

virtual double mimo::AntennaArray::get_phase (  unsigned  N, unsigned  k, double  alpha )  const [pure virtual]

Returns the phase shift for antenna element k out of N total elements and at an incoming angle alpha. To be implemented in a derived class. Implemented in mimo::UniformLinearLambdaHalf, mimo::UniformCircularLambdaHalf, and mimo::NonUniform.

AntennaArray* mimo::AntennaArray::init (  const simth::PropertyList &  pl  )  [static]

Returns a newly created object of this base class. The actual derived class is chosen from the property "array_geometry" in the given propertylist. Potentially a specific array geometry might need more properties.
