چکیده

A performance analysis of two hybrid selective combining/maximal ratio combining (SC/MRC) diversity receivers over Nakagami-m fading channels with a flat multipath intensity profile is presented and numerically compared with that of the conventional SC and MRC schemes. Numerical results for particular cases of interest show that the bit error rate (BER) degradation arising from the use of hybrid SC/MRC instead of MRC is independent of the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regardless of the severity of the fading and that MRC provides a higher rate of improvement than the hybrid SC/MRC as the severity of fading decreases.

Rake Reception with Maximal-ratio and Equal-gain Combining for Ds-cdma Systems in Nakagami Fading

We study coherent binary direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems operating over frequency-selective Nakagami fading channels. In particular a performance comparison between maximal-ratio combining (MRC) and equal-gain combining (EGC) RAKE receivers is considered. For interference limited systems, perfect MRC RAKE receivers can accommodate about 5m=(5m ? 1) more users tha...

Performance of a dual maximal ratio combining receiver has been analyzed for M-ary coherent and non-coherent modulations over correlated Nakagami-m fading channels with nonidentical and arbitrary fading parameter. The classical probability density function (PDF) based approach is used for analysis. Expressions for outage probability and average symbol error performance for M-ary coherent and no...

Performance Analysis of Maximal Ratio Diversity Receivers over Generalized Fading Channels

Diversity reception, is an efficient communication receiver technique for mitigating the detrimental effects of multi-path fading in wireless mobile channels at relatively low cost. Diversity combining is the technique applied to combine the multiple received copies of the same information bearing signal into a single improved signal, in order to increase the overall signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)...
