Abstract The demand for increased capacity in wireless communication networks has motivated recent research activities toward wireless systems that exploit the concept of smart antenna and space selectivity. Efficient utilization of limited radio frequency spectrum is only possible to use smart/adaptive antenna system. Smart antenna radiates not only narrow beam towards desired users exploiting signal processing capability but also places null towards interferers, thus optimizing the signal quality and enhancing capacity. We analysis the performance of adaptive (LMS) algorithm for smart antenna systems which very important for smart antenna design. The SA incorporates this algorithm in coded form which calculates complex weights according to the signal environment. The performance of LMS algorithm is compared on the basis of normalized array factor and Mean Square Error (MSE) for SA systems. It is observed that an LMS algorithm is converging after 50 iteration
