Performance Analysis of Diversity Combining Algorithms in Shadowed Fading Channels

A compound fading model incorporating short term fading and shadowing proposed recently is used to analyze the performance of wireless systems employing microscopic diversity to mitigate the effects of flat fading. This model can account for the presence of different levels of fading and shadowing and provide an analytical solution for the probability density function of the signal-to-noise ratio. Using that model, the performances of MRC and SC diversity combining algorithms were studied. The amount fading (AF) following diversity implementation was calculated and it is seen that the decline in the amount of fading is bound by the level of shadowing present, with the MRC providing a larger decrease in the amount of fading than the SC algorithm. The effect on the error rates was studied using the example of the coherent BPSK modem. Results show that the performances of wireless systems can be analyzed using the compound model for the shadowed fading channels. P.M. Shankar received his M.

Performance Analysis of Multiband Complex Wavelet Based MC-CDMA System with Space Diversity Combining in Rayleigh Fading Channel

In this paper, the multiband complex wavelet used as multi-carrier basis function is optimized. On the basis of analyzing the principle of multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA), a new multiband complex wavelet based MC-CDMA (MBCW-MC-CDMA) system model is proposed, and space diversity combining (SDC) technique is employed to improve the system performance further. The uplink performance of proposed MBCW-MC-CDMA system with SDC technique is investigated in Rayleigh fading channel, and corresponding bit error rate (BER) analysis is given in detail. Without any cyclic prefix (CP), the system can avoid the decrease of spectrum efficiency and data rate of conventional MC-CDMA with CP. By comparison, our scheme outperforms real wavelet packet based MC-CDMA and slightly outperforms conventional MC-CDMA with CP via utilizing superior properties of the optimized multiband complex wavelet. Theoretical analysis and simulation result show that the application of SDC technique can improve the proposed system ability to combat spatial fading and various interferences effectively. Moreover, the proposed system based on SDC technique has superior BER performance over conventional DFT and SDC based MC-CDMA system and real wavelet packet and SDC based MC-CDMA system.

Error Performance Evaluation of Wireless Communication Systems Using Maximal Ratio Combining with Multiple Interferers

In this paper we evaluate the error performance of wireless communication systems using M-branch maximal ratio combining (MRC) with multiple cochannel interference. Three cochannel interference models are considered: (A) L independent identically distributed (i.i.d.) Nakagami-m cochannel interferers; (B) L independent cochannel interferers consisting of L-N Nakagami-m interferers and N Rayleigh interferers; (C) L independent cochannel interferers in which each interferer follows Nakagami-m distribution for a fraction of time and Rayleigh distribution for the remaining time. In addition, the desired signal assumes Nakagami-m fading. This paper considers that an exponential correlation model is assumed for the desired signals received on each branch, while the interferers are assumed independent. Closed-form expressions are derived for the probability density functions (PDFs) of the instantaneous signal-to-interference power ratio (SIR) at the output of the MRC for the three interference models. Using these SIR PDFs, further closed-form expressions to evaluate the outage probability (OTP) and the average bit error probability (BEP) of differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) are derived. Numerical results showing the impacts of the system parameters on the OTP and the average BEP are then presented.     

Performance analysis of MIMO systems with multiuser diversity

In this paper, we present a comprehensive performance analysis for multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) systems with multiuser diversity over Rayleigh fading channels. We derive exact closed‐form expressions of the outage probability and the average bit error rate (BER) for different MIMO schemes, including the selective combining (SC), maximum ratio combining (MRC) and space‐time block codes (STBC). We also provide the explicit upper bounds on the BER performance. Finally, the mathematical formalism is verified by numeric results that study the interaction between the antenna diversity and the multiuser diversity. It is observed that the system performance is deteriorated as the number of transmit antennas increases in multiuser scenario, which is unlike the case in single‐user systems.

Comparative performance analysis of cooperative and multi dual‐hop relay networks using MGF approach

In this paper, we analyzed and compared the performance of cooperative diversity systems such as cooperative and multi dual‐hop networks with non‐regenerative relay nodes. The contributions of this study are twofolds. Firstly, analytical expressions of outage probability P_out and average symbol error rate ASER are derived using moment generating function (MGF) analysis of the received SNR with the assumption that the channel experiences Weibull fading and the best relay selection is used. Then, using the analytical results, comparative performance evaluation of cooperative and multi dual‐hop relay networks is done for varying number of relay nodes and different receive diversity schemes such as maximal ratio combining (MRC) and selection combining (SC). The results show that the cooperative relay network has better performance than a multi dual‐hop relay network in terms of P_out and ASER. The results also show that the multi dual‐hop network can achieve the same performance as the cooperative network with the requirement that it needs the deployment of three times more relay nodes.     

An approximate analytical framework for performance analysis of equal gain combining technique over independent Nakagami,Rician and Weibull fading channels

In this paper, an approximate analytical method for performance analysis of equal gain combiner (EGC) receiver over independent Nakagami and Rician fading channels is presented. We use a convergent infinite series approach which makes it possible to describe the probability of error of EGC receiver in the form of an infinite series. In this paper, we develop a new approximation method for computation of the required coefficients in this series which lets us to derive simple analytical closed-form expressions with good accuracy compared with the exact results existing in the literatures. Our proposed approximation method only needs the mean and the variance of the fading envelope, which are known for various fading distributions, and hence, bypasses the required integration over the fading envelope distribution while computing the required coefficients. This feature lets us to extend our approximation method for performance analysis of EGC receiver over independent Weibull fading channels where the required integration has not any closed-form or tabulated solutions. To give an application of our developed method, we analyze the probability of error of an EGC receiver for binary, coherent PSK (CPSK) modulation over independent Nakagami, Rician and weibull fading channels and study the effect of the fading conditions on the system performance.
