  Abstract

In this paper, we propose receiver using ESPAR antenna for diversity gain. The proposed receiver receive signal by changing direction of beam pattern alternately in the OFDM symbol time period when DoA is estimated. In this way, the proposed receiver obtains diversity gain. The proposed receiver has single RF chain. If beam direction is changed alternately then it causes spectrum spread. And then, ICI occur because of spectrum spread. This interference can be equalized at the frequency domain equalizer such as ZF, MMSE and ML. In simulation, the proposed system receive signal using beam pattern of 60° and beam pattern of 120° alternately in OFDM symbol time period when it is assumed that DoA is 60° and 120°. The performance results confirm that it is possible that the proposed receiver obtains diversity gain.
