Abstract

Communication systems of the future will require hundreds of independent spatial channels achieved through dense antenna arrays connected to digital signal processing software defined radios. The cost and complexity of data converters are a significant concern with systems having hundreds of antennas. This paper explores frequency division multiplexing as an approach for augmenting the baseband signals of multiple antenna channels such that a single ADC can sample a multitude of antennas in an array. The approach is equally applicable to both massive MIMO and mm-wave digital wireless arrays. An example design based on Xilinx RF SoC for combining 4 antenna channels at 28 GHz into a single ADC is provided.
