Abstract
Antenna arrays to be used in MIMO apparatuses are disclosed. Such an antenna array may include a plurality of array elements, wherein every second element in a first direction is a digital pre-distortion-less linear element, and every second element in the first direction is a non-linear element. In the antenna array, spacing between adjacent elements in the first direction is less than a half of a free space wavelength. A non-linear precoding is applied to transmissions from the antenna array, the non-linear precoding converting out-of-band emissions of the transmissions into reactive power in the near-field around the antenna array while ensuring that in-band signals generated by the elements remain unaffected.
