Spectral efficiency for selection combining RAKE receivers over Weibull fading channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
Novel closed-form expressions for the probability density function and the average output signal-to-noise ratio at the output of a selection combiner in Weibull fading are derived. Using these expressions, the spectral efficiency of a direct sequence code division multiple access system is analytically obtained and performance evaluation results are presented. r 2004 The Franklin Institute.

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...
متن کاملAverage channel capacity for generalized-selection combining RAKE receivers
RAKE reception has been considered as an effective way to anticipate multipath signal fading in direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) communications systems. Common diversity techniques used in conventional fingered RAKE receivers are maximal-ratio combining (MRC) and equal-gain combining (EGC). Conventional fingered RAKE receivers offer increased complexity, since the number ...
متن کاملA Blind Hammerstein Diversity Combining Technique for Flat Fading Channels
Diversity combining techniques play an important role in combating the destructive effects of channel fading in wireless communication systems. In this work we present a blind diversity combining technique for Rayleigh flat fading channels based on Hammerstein type filters. We show that the performance of this technique is very close to ideal MRC system which is accepted as an optimum receiver ...
متن کاملThe Performance of Joint Partial RAKE Receiver and Adaptive Modulation in the Presence of Self-Interference
We investigate the impact of self-interference on the performance of joint partial RAKE (PRAKE) receiver and adaptive modulation over both independent and identically distributed and independent but non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels in the presence of self-interference in terms of the average spectral efficiency as performance measures. Some selected results show the performa...
متن کاملError-rate analysis of switched diversity receivers in Weibull fading
Introduction: Diversity is an effective and widely used technique for mitigating the effects of multipath fading [1]. Among the well-known diversity techniques, switched and stay combining (SSC) is simple and cheap, though less efficient. In a dual-branch SSC receiver, if the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the first branch falls below a predefined switching threshold, the second b...
