Abstract
This article is an overview of smart antenna applications in fixed broadban d wireless access networks. Different smart antenna techniques are describe d including recent advances such as "spatial multiplexing" that can dramati cally increase the performance of BWA networks. The impact of SA techniques on capacity and throughput of BWA networks is discussed.
