Performance of coherent receivers with hybrid SC/MRC overNakagami-m fading channels

A performance analysis of two hybrid selective combining/maximal ratio combining (SC/MRC) diversity receivers over Nakagami-m (1960) fading channels with a flat multipath intensity profile is presented and numerically compared with that of the conventional SC and MRC schemes. Numerical results for particular cases of interest show that the bit error rate (BER) degradation arising from the use of hybrid SC/MRC instead of MRC is independent of the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regardless of the severity of the fading and that MRC provides a higher rate of improvement than the hybrid SC/MRC as the severity of fading decreases     

Comparison of diversity combining techniques for Rayleigh-fadingchannels

Several methods of diversity combining for a Rayleigh-faded channel are evaluated and compared. The methods considered are, for coherent reception, maximal ratio combining (MRC), selection combining (SC), and a generalization of SC, whereby the two (three) signals with the two (three) largest amplitudes are coherently combined. We will call this method second (third) order SC, and denote it SC2 (SC3). Similar techniques are also investigated for noncoherent reception, with equal gain combining (EGC) replacing MRC, and noncoherent versions of SC2 and SC3. Numerical results indicate that SC2 and SC3 significantly enhances the bit-error rate (BER) performance relative to that achievable with SC, and under certain conditions approaches the performance achieved by MRC or EGG. The performance enhancement of SC2 and SC3 is especially noticable for noncoherent reception, where EGC is seen to provide the best performance only for low BER values. In fact, when the BER is 10 ^-3 or greater, SC2 and SC3 performed comparably to EGG, and in some cases performed better than EGC     

Performance analysis of square arranged antenna array with SC and MRC receiver over Nakagami fading channel

In this paper, the performance of using a square array of four antennas for selection combining (SC) and maximal-ratio combining (MRC) of Nakagami correlated signals is investigated. The closed form of average output signal-to-noise ratio and bit error rate (BER) for SC with arbitrary four correlated branches is derived; the expression of BER with MRC is also derived by utilizing the characteristic function method. Two models for the angle of arrival (AOA), i.e., uniform and truncated Gaussian, are considered in the system performance evaluation. The effects of correlation coefficients and fading factor on the system performance are investigated through numerical examples, which show that the uniformly distributed AOA system outperforms the truncated Gaussian-distributed counterpart with small angular spread. The degradation of system performance in the presence of one-antenna failure is also investigated.

Performance analysis of predetection EGC receiver in Weibull fading channel

The predetection equal gain combining (EGC) receiver is generally known to have a performance that is close to the maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver while having relatively less implementation complexity. The bit error rate (BER) of an EGC receiver for binary, coherent and noncoherent modulations has been analysed for an independent Weibull fading channel. Numerical results have been compared with the available results for selection combining (SC) and MRC diversity receivers.     

Analysis of hybrid selection/maximal-ratio diversity combiners withGaussian errors

The paper examines the impact of Gaussian distributed weighting errors (in the channel gain estimates used for coherent combination) on both the output statistics of a hybrid selection/maximal-ratio (SC/MRC) receiver and the degradation of the average symbol-error rate (ASER) performance as compared with the ideal case. New expressions are derived for the probability density function, cumulative distribution function and moment generating function (MGF) of the coherent hybrid SC/MRC combiner output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The MGF is then used to derive exact, closed-form, ASER expressions for binary and M-ary modulations in conjunction a nonideal hybrid SC/MRC receiver in a Rayleigh fading environment. Results for both selection combining (SC) and maximal-ratio combining (MRC) are obtained as limiting cases. Additionally, the effect of the weighting errors on both the outage rate of error probability and the average combined SNR is investigated. These analytical results provide insights into the tradeoff between diversity gain and combination losses, in concert with increasing orders of diversity branches in an energy-sharing communication system     

Analysis of Transmit Antenna Selection/Maximal-Ratio Combining in Rayleigh Fading Channels

In this paper, we investigate a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) scheme combining transmit antenna selection and receiver maximal-ratio combining (the TAS/MRC scheme). In this scheme, a single transmit antenna, which maximizes the total received signal power at the receiver, is selected for uncoded transmission. The closed-form outage probability of the system with transmit antenna selection is presented. The bit error rate (BER) of the TAS/MRC scheme is derived for binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) in flat Rayleigh fading channels. The BER analysis demonstrates that the TAS/MRC scheme can achieve a full diversity order at high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), as if all the transmit antennas were used. The average SNR gain of the TAS/MRC is quantified and compared with those of uncoded receiver MRC and space-time block codes (STBCs). The analytical results are verified by simulation. It is shown that the TAS/MRC scheme outperforms some more complex space-time codes of the same spectral efficiency. The cost of the improved performance is a low-rate feedback channel. We also show that channel estimation errors based on pilot symbols have no impact on the diversity order over quasi-static fading channels.     

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.
