Abstract: Multiantenna technology can be implemented in several modes. These modes have varying characteristics and are used in different scenarios. This paper introduces Beamforming (BF), Cyclic Delay Diversity (CDD), Spatial Diversity (SD), Spatial Multiplexing (SM), and other multiantenna technologies. It also analyzes various technical features and their application scenarios. An adaptive multiantenna switching algorithm is proposed that chooses a suitable mode for sending data according to the scenario or wireless channel conditions. This switching algorithm improves multiantenna technology and enhances the quality of wireless network communications.

Key words: BF, CDD, SD, SM, adaptive mode switch
