Abstract
4G LTE system uses an isotropic antenna to transmit radio wave power uniformly in all directions. In contrast, 3D beamforming is a 5G technology that directs the radio wave beam power towards those user equipment intended for communication thereby increasing SINR and decreasing the BER experienced at the User Equipment (UE). This paper compares the performance of an isotropic LTE system with a 3D beamforming system by quantifying the average Signal Noise Ratio (SNR) and Bit Error Rate (BER) received by all UEs in its coverage area.
