Coverage study for broadband wireless systems using link adaptation and diversity combining techniques

A broadband wireless access system is a bi-directional broadband wireless system to fixed networks at millimeter-wave frequencies. The propagation environment at millimeter-wave frequencies is one of the major challenges in delivering broadband services to fixed subscribers. At such high frequencies the signal is attenuated by the obstacles in the radio path between the subscriber and the hub, such as buildings, trees and vehicles in the radio path between the subscriber and the hub.Link adaptation techniques such as adaptive modulation and error control coding have been applied to wireless communication systems to overcome the multipath fading experienced by the transmitted signal. Diversity has long been recognized as an effective technique for combating the effect of channel multipath fading. In this study, we investigate the outage probability improvements due to the employments of various combinations of adaptive modulation, adaptive coding, and diversity techniques in a broadband wireless access system. The results indicate that using adaptive modulation, coding, and maximal ratio combining (MRC) yields significant enhancements in outage probability of the system.

This study investigates the impact of the diversity combining techniques on the performance of wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) ad hoc networks operating over κ-μ fading channels, where the performance criterion in this study is in terms of the expected progress per hop. The probability density function (PDF) and the cumulative density function (CDF) of the interference power are obtained in κ-μ fading conditions. Furthermore, expression for the unconditional CDF of the signal-to-noise-and-interference ratio (SNIR) is derived, which is utilized to derive expressions for the expected progress per hop with selecting combining (SC) and maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity. Corresponding expressions for Nakagami-m and Rician fading are presented in this paper as special cases of κ-μ fading. Numerical results are presented for illustration purposes.

Physical layer security via maximal ratio combining and relay selection over Rayleigh fading channels

In this paper, the impact of both maximal ratio combining (MRC) and relay selection on the physical layer security in wireless communication systems is investigated by analyzing critical issues such as the probability characteristics of the legitimate receiver (Bob) and malicious eavesdropper (Eve)’s end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the secrecy outage probability and the average secrecy channel capacity over Rayleigh fading Channel, etc. Unlike the conventional physical layer security schemes, we assume that Bob receives its data from both the relay and the source via cooperative relay, provided that MRC is employed at the receiver. Particularly, compared to the conventional MRC methods, the proposed method is capable of achieving a higher spatial diversity order by performing relay selection, as validated by performing the theoretical analysis as well as numerical simulation. Furthermore, the closed-form expressions in terms of secrecy outage probability and average secrecy capacity are all consistent with the numerical results. Finally, the proposed scheme may be substantially affected by a number of parameters such as the number of relays, the SNR of links and the ratio of main-to-eavesdropper ratio (MER) λ_ME.     

Performance analysis of WLAN physical layers using Markov channel model

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and multiple antennas are being used in various standards of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) to enhance data rates and to achieve higher reliability in fading channel conditions. Channel modeling plays a crucial role, especially in wireless environment, in evaluating the performance of physical layer in fading environment. The paper presents a Finite State Markov (FSM) channel model, for computation of fading channel performance measures. Frequency and duration analysis is proposed to evaluate the performance of WLAN physical layers for OFDM, OFDM with Selection Combining (SC) and OFDM with Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC) diversity techniques. Level Crossing Rate (LCR) and Average Fade Duration (AFD) are computed with the analysis of FSM model. Bit Error Rate (BER) is then calculated with the help of LCR and AFD. LCR, AFD and BER performances are compared for three physical layers with varying fade depths and for different values of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Results show that OFDM with MRC gives minimum value of BER for fade depths more than 0 dB, while BER is minimum for OFDM with SC for fade depths below 0 dB. OFDM with diversity always outperforms than OFDM without diversity for all values of fade depths.     

Performance Evaluation of Antenna Receive Diversity in SlMO-OFDM System over Rayleigh Fading Channel

This paper represents a comparative performance evaluation of different diversity combining techniques for a SIMO-OFDM （single-input-multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing） system over Rayleigh fading channel. OFDM is a key technique for achieving high data rates and spectral efficiency requirements for wireless communication systems. But in scattering environment, the system performances are severely degraded by the effects of multipath fading and inter-symbol interference. In wireless communication systems, antenna diversity is an important technique to combat multipath fading in order to improve the system performance and increase the channel capacity. In this paper, the performance of different diversity combining techniques-SC （selection combining）, EGC （equal gain combining） and MRC （maximal ratio combining） has been analyzed and compared in terms of SNR （signal to noise ratio） and BER （bit error rate） probability. The simulation results show that the maximal ratio combining technique provides maximum performance improvement relative to all other combining schemes by maximizing the SNR of SIMO-OFDM system at the combiner output. The analytic expressions of error probability and effective bit energy to noise ratio correlated with BPSK （binary phase shift keying） modulation have been derived and formulated for N-branch SC, EGC and MRC schemes. The BER characteristics for all three combining techniques are simulated in MATLAB （matrix laboratory） tool box for varying bit energy to noise ratio. Our results also derives that SNR can be improved if the number of receiving antenna is increased, which in turn reduces BER over a Rayleigh fading channel.
