Soft Output Bit Error Rate Estimation for WCDMA
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a method that computes an estimation of the bit error rate (BER) based on the RAKE receiver soft output only. For this method no knowledge is needed about the channel characteristics nor the precise external conditions. Simulations show that the mean error of the estimation is below 2%, with only a small variance. Implementation issues for a practical use of the method are discussed.

Performance Analysis of Modulation Techniques in MIMO Rician Channel for WCDMA System
In today communication network the major challenges is to integrates a wide variety of serves, convey the more information as efficiently as possible through limited bandwidth and providing high data rates. Some of information bits are lost in most of the cases and signal which is sent originally will face fading. To reduce the bit error rate and signal fading require high data rate modulation ...
متن کاملNon Blocking OVSF Codes Influence The Performance Of WCDMA System
In this paper the performance of OVSF and NOVSF codes in WCDMA are evaluated by calculating their blocking probability and plotting graphs between blocking probability and new call arrival rate (request per minute) at different data rates (R, 2R, 4R and 8R where R can be either 8kbps or 16kbps). NOVSF is a new code assignment scheme which greatly reduces the code blocking problem. There are mai...

Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) technology has emerged as the most widely adopted third generation (3G) air interface. 3GPP Release 7 (HSPA+) WCDMA systems introduced two features Higher Order Modulation (HOM) and Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). MIMO improve the throughput in wireless medium. It achieves a higher spectral efficiency. This paper focuses on the performance a...
متن کاملOn the site selection diversity transmission
We examine site selection diversity transmission (SSDT) for 3GPP WCDMA forward link by means of analytical tools. Hard handover (HHO), soft handover (SHO) and SSDT are compared by using the receiver bit error probability as a performance measure taking into account the effect of feedback bit errors as well as the shadow fading. Results show that without fast transmission power control the perfo...
متن کاملDiscrete Polyphase Matched Filtering-based Soft Timing Estimation for Mobile Wireless Systems
In this paper we present a soft timing phase estimation (STPE) method for wireless mobile receivers operating in low signal to noise ratios (SNRs). Discrete Polyphase Matched (DPM) filters, a Log-maximum a posterior probability (MAP) and/or a Soft-output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA) are combined to derive a new timing recovery (TR) scheme. We apply this scheme to wireless cellular communication sys...
