The error rate equation of Reed-Solomon/Convoutional concatenated coded MFSK signal transmitted over m-distributed fading channel with Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and re- ceived with Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) diversity has been derived. The bit error probability has been evaluated using the derived equation and shown n figures as a function of signal to noise ratio, fading index and the number of diversity branches. From the results obtained, we have shown that the bit error probability of MFSK signal is improved by using coding technique in fading environment. The concatenated coding technique is found to be very effective. When concatenated coding and MRC diversity reception techniques are used together in fading environ- ment, the improvement of error performance attains about 6.6 dB in terms of SNR as compared with that of employing only concatenated coding case.

This paper proposes a novel transmit diversity technique, namely symbol split orthogonal transmit diversity (SS-OTD). In this technique, full path diversity and temporal diversity are achieved by combining orthogonal transmit diversity technique (OTD) technique with the symbol splitting method proposed by Meyer. Its performances is simulated for fundamental channels associated with the forward link of the IS-2000 system, and then compared with those of OTD and space-time spreading (STS). Our proposed method offers a 0.5-7.7dB performance improvement over OTD under various simulation environments and its performance is similar to STS. Moreover, compares with that of STS, the peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) of transmitted signals in SS-OTD is reduced by a maximal 1.35dB, which decreases the complexity of base station RF devices, such as power amplifiers. Thus, SS-OTD is comparable to STS in performance and superior to STS in the cost and efficiency of base station RF devices.

Cooperative relaying systems have been studied actively to improve the system performance effectively in wireless fading channels. Most of the cooperative relay studies are assumed fixed relay, recently the performance analysis of the cooperative relaying systems with spatially random relays considering the practical mobile environment are introduced. However the comparative studies for relay selection methods of incremental cooperative relay systems, the performance of which is influenced by the selection methods, have not been studied. Therefore we derive the performance of the system which has MRC(Maximal-ratio combining) with Max SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) selection or Max-min SNR selection, respectively. And the outage performances of the system with Max or Max-min selection method are compared for different transmit power allocation to the source and to the relays. The analytical results serve as useful tools for relay selection and power allocation to transmit nodes for opportunistic incremental relaying systems.

Opportunistic transmit cooperative relaying (OTR) system has been interested for its ability to mitigate the fading in wireless channel without multiple antennas in a small terminal. In OTR system, only the relays that the received Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from a source is greater than the threshold transmit to the destination. However, the receiving branches of a destination in a realistic system is fixed, the excess number of signals from the transmit relays does not improve the system performance and consequently increases power consumption. In this paper, we adopt Double Opportunistic Transmit (DOT) cooperative diversity system which controls the average number of transmit relays. Although the average number of the transmit relays can be controlled by adjusting the two thresholds in DOT system, the instantaneous number of transmit relays is varying in fading channel. Thus we propose Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) or Generalized Selection Combining (GSC) according to the number of the signals from relays at the destination. The outage probability of the proposed system is derived in closed form. The analytical results show that the system performance is improved with the number of the branches. Also it is noticed that when the number of the branches is fixed, the outage probability decreases with the increase of the average SNR of S-R path and R-D path.

This paper concentrates on developing and analyzing an advanced space-time multiuser receiver for WCDMA forward link. Through exploring the interference caused by co-channel users and delayed multipaths in CDMA, a constrained linear adaptive filter is adopted to cancel the interference. Furthermore, by utilizing the space-time diversity, an optimum diversity receiver, called a constrained adaptive space-time interference canceller (C-ASTIC), is proposed. For comparison, the statistical analysis of multiuser performance for WCDMA system with space-time diversity is described. The result of the simulation showed that C-ASTIC performs better than both the space-time diversity combining maximal ratio combiner (MRC) and the single-antenna adaptive interference canceller in a multipath fading channel. Also, the efficiency of the C-ASTIC in the multimedia communication environment is investigated under the multiuser, multi-transmit antenna, and multirate WCDMA system in a multipath fading channel. From the results, the C-ASTIC was validated to be useful for multi-rate WCDMA system through improving the performance gain by more than 3 dB at BER of 10$\^$-3/ in a half or more loaded system.

Conventionally, in a CDMA system analysis, we assume only a single path within one chip duration. But, in this paper, we assume various number of multipaths within one chip duration according to spreading bandwidth in fixed channel model. Thus we take into account of the effects of autocorrelation and relative phases among multipath components within one chip duration according to different bandwidth, and analyze fading effects. And we derive the pdf of output signal. Then, we derive the average error probability versus the number of users from derived pdf. We use a Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) RAKE receiver under the JTC channel model which is one of the popular realistic wideband channel models. And we employ hybrid FDMA/CDMA systems to compare the performance of W-CBMA system for the same occupied total bandwidth. Then, we compare and analyze them for different bandwidth based on the number of users as a parameter. From the simulation results for different bandwidth, better performance can be obtained for wider bandwidth system where more resolvable multipath components are available.

This paper presents an analytical evaluation of a hybrid direct-sequence/slow frequencyhopped code division multiple-access (DS/SFH-CDMA) system employing noncoherent M-ary frequency shift keying(MFSK) modulation in a multiple Nakagami fading (m) environment. Multipath interference (MPI) and multi-access interference (MAI) is taken into account and the spectral efficiency is calculated for uncoded as well as channel coding systems. Predetection multipath maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity in conjunction with interleaved channel coding (Hamming(7,4) code, BCH(15, 7) code and RS (7, 4), (15, 9)) code ) is employed for improving the bit error rate (BER) performance. The BER of noncoherent hybrid system is obtained using a Gaussian interference approximation.

In the land mobile satellite (LMS) communication, a hybrid satellite-terrestrial relay networks (HSTRNs) using a maximal ratio combining (MRC) scheme are widely used to enhance the quality of signal from a satellite. In this paper, we derive equations for the TCP throughput and the spectral efficiency in the HSTRN and analyze results of the performance evaluation for TCP in various environments. In the simulation results, it is shown that increasing the number of terrestrial relays can enhance the TCP throughput and spectral efficiency thanks to the MRC scheme. However, the usage of the static number of terrestrial relays considering no channel states would cause the overhead. Furthermore, it has a limitation to enhance the network performance by only MRC scheme in HSTRN because the TCP performance is sensitive to the packet los rate. Therefore, we discuss the possible solutions that can additionally enhance the network performance and reduce the overhead.

In this paper, the performances of wireless asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cell transmission in mobile work are analyzed. We adopt 16Star QAM as amodulation technique in wireless channel and considered Reed-Solomon, convolutional, and concatenated coding to improve the error rate performances, and also proposed the Partial Concatenated Coding (PCC) technique as UEP(unequal error protection) code for efficient transmission of ATM cell in the air interface. We consider Doppler's effect, Rician fading, and diversity technique of maximal-ratio combining (MRC) for mobile channel model. For performance measure, we analyze bit error rate, ATM cell loss probability, ATM cell error probability, and network performances of ATM cell transmission delay and throughput. The numerical results show that the adoption of PCC is a prospective way for the evolution of future wireless ATM network on mobile environment.

The balanced Tx diversity with same data on two antennas can have better or lower performance than STBC Tx diversity, depending on the difference between each phase of two channels when the received signal is processed with MRRC. Therefore, using the feedback information based on the phase estimation in each channels, the better scheme of the balanced Tx diversity and STBC Tx diversity can be selected. However, when the phase condition changes during the transmission as the selected Tx. diversity scheme, the decoded bit can be erroneous because the previously estimated phase and newly estimated phase is different. In this case, the receiver should request the re-transmission of the just received signal to the transmitter part. Through computer simulation, it is shown that the combined scheme of the balanced Tx diversity and STBC Tx. diversity has better performance than STBC Tx diversity.
