چکیده

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 efficiency increased by 19%23% (depending on the channel model and the mobile speed) in the case of MRC as compared to Selection Combining (SC).

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...

A Full-Duplex, Dual-Polarization 10Gbps Radio over Fiber system with wavelength reuse for upstream signal

This study presents a full-duplex Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) system providing the users' wireless access with a bit rate of 10 Gbps over 40 GHz radio carrier. This system can be used in a centralized radio access network (C-RAN) architecture because we provide a fully analog front haul link between central station and base station. We can consider it as infrastructure between remote radio heads (RR...

Pilot Aided Estimation and Equalisation of a Radio over Fibre System in WCDMA

In this paper the impact of a Radio over Fibre (RoF) subsystem on the capacity performance of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) is evaluated. The study investigates the use of pilot aided channel estimation to compensate for the optical subsystem nonlinearities for different channel conditions, estimation intervals, and coding schemes. The results show that pilot aided channel esti...

HSPA Evolution – Boosting the performance of mobile broadband access

Today, 84% of all reported global cellular subscribers make calls via radio access technology specifi ed by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). This signifi es that WCDMA is the predominant thirdgeneration (3G) radio network technology, and as such, represents a substantial economy of scale. In addition, the recent introduction of high-speed packet access (HSPA, 3GPP Release 6) has...
