Optimal Combining for Rake Reception in Mobile Cellular CDMA Forward Links
نویسنده
چکیده
A bsiract— Two methods for mult ipath combining are compared for rake reception of a CDMA cellular forward-link traffic channel. Combining based on estimation of the signal-to-interference ratio of the output of each tap of the rake receiver is shown to provide significant performance improvement in comparison with the more commonly considered combiner that is based on measurement of the signal strength. The performance of rake receivers using the two methods of combining is considered for several fading, mult ipath channels.

Theoretical Study of Site Selection Diversity Transmission in DS-CDMA Cellular Mobile Radio
Single cell reuse of the same frequency, which is possible in DS-CDMA cellular systems, yields the option of site diversity to increase link capacity. In this letter, a generalized case of site diversity transmission is considered where multiple base stations (BS’s) are involved in weighted transmissions with constant total transmit power to a target mobile station (MS). A general equation of c...
متن کاملDS-CDMA Downlink Site Diversity with Frequency-Domain Equalization and Antenna Diversity Reception
The use of frequency-domain equalization based on minimum mean square error criterion (called MMSE-FDE) can significantly improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of DS-CDMA signal transmission compared to the well-known coherent rake combining. However, in a DS-CDMA cellular system, as a mobile user moves away from a base station and approaches the cell edge, the received signal power gets...
متن کاملCombined Effect of Adaptive RAKE Reception and Channel Coding on Signal Transmission Performance with DPSK DS/CDMA Mobile Radio
A companion paper has proposed a new diversity combining scheme, adaptive RAKE diversity (ARD), for differential PSK direct sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) mobile communications systems. In the ARD system, the demodulated signals in the time window for path diversity combining are unequally weighted and combined. The values of the weight coefficients are determined so that the ...
متن کاملPerformance of multicode DS-CDMA using frequency domain equalisation in frequency selective fading channel
For the reception of multicode direct sequence (DS)-CDMA signals, the MMSE frequency domain equalisation is applied instead of RAKE combining. The achievable BER performance in a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel is evaluated by computer simulation. It is shown by computer simulation that the DS-CDMA with MMSE frequency domain equalisation outperforms the DS-CDMA with RAKE combining a...
متن کاملForward Link Performance of Site Selection Diversity Transmit with Antenna Diversity and Rake Combining in DS-CDMA Mobile Radio
Abstract In this paper, it is theoretically shown that the optimal solution to maximize the DS-CDMA forward link capacity under the condition of constant total transmit power is to transmit only from the best base station (BS) that has the maximum channel gain (this is called site selection diversity transmit (SSDT)). This theoretical analysis is confirmed by the Monte-Carlo computer simulation...
