Abstract
The 4D (four-dimensional) antenna array introduces time as an additional degree of freedom in antenna beamforming. Periodical on/off switching applied to each element of the antenna array leads to generation of sidebands which are suitable for multi-channel transmission and smart beamforming. This paper provides an overview of the state of the art in the area of 4D antennas with focus on technical limitations and achievable performance.
