Downlink Macrodiversity in Cellular Network - A Fluid Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes an analytical study of the downlink macrodiversity. Considering two macrodiversity links, we first show that the downlink macrodiversity induces a specific load in the cell. We establish an explicit expression of this one, and show that macrodiversity increases the total cell's load. The network's fluid analysis we propose enables to calculate the load of a cell and to quantify the impact of macrodiversity. We show that macrodiversity decreases the capacity of a cell. We generalize the analysis, considering a macrodiversity with a great number of base stations of the network.

Capacity Improvement in the Downlink of WCDMA with Radio over Fibre Access Network
In this paper, the capacity improvement in the downlink of WCDMA is investigated. The performance of WCDMA Radio over Fibre access network during Macrodiversity mode is evaluated. We computed the required Eb/No for different cases applying the Macrodiversity Combining method. Our simulation results demonstrate that, for a given service, the capacity increased by 13% -46% (depending on the chann...
متن کاملCoded Transmit Macrodiversity: Block Space-Time Codes over Distributed Antennas
This paper considers the combination of space-time codes and macrodiversity to the cellular downlink. The antenna array used by the space-time code is comprised of the antennas of two or three geographically separated base stations. For ease of exposition and to reduce algorithmic complexity, we have restricted our attention in this paper to space-time block codes. Simulation results indicate a...

Wireless asymmetric Internet access with a downlink peak bit rate of 10 to 30 Mb/s can be achieved by using the terrestrial digital video broadcasting system (DVB-T) as a supplemental downlink together with today’s cellular systems. This paper is a study of dynamic radio resource management on a packet-by-packet basis for this broadband downlink. The dynamic single frequency networks (DSFN) sch...
متن کاملEffects of Rician Fading and Branch Correlation on a Local-Mean-Based Macrodiversity Cellular System
In a macrodiversity cellular system, switching radio links between base stations cannot be done instantaneously. Thus, branch selection is usually based on the measurement of the slowly varying local-mean power rather than the rapidly varying instantaneous signal power. In this paper, we offer an exact mathematical model to analyze the performance of a local-mean-based macrodiversity cellular s...
متن کاملMacrodiversity performance in the uplink of WCDMA with radio over fibre access network
In this paper, the performance of the uplink of a WCDMA Radio over Fibre access network during Macrodiversity mode is investigated. We propose a novel Macrodiversity scheme in the uplink, based on Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC) of the received symbols by different BS receivers of a WCDMA mobile cellular system with RoF. Our simulation results demonstrate that, for a given service, the coverage e...
