In a cellular mobile radio system an SDMA (Space Division Multiple Access) component can be implemented for the reuse of radio channels physically incorporated by time, frequency or code slots. Since SDMA is based on the spatial separation of different users operating in the same channel, a DOA (Direction of arrival) sensitive channel allocation scheme is essential for maximizing system capacity. In this paper we present the Eigenvector method, a computationally efficient algorithm to do this job. We also present simulation results on the Eigenvector method operating in a typical urban mobile radio cell. The simulated blocking probabilities are then used to predict the capacity increase which can be expected after adding an SDMA component to a conventional mobile radio system.
