In this paper, we analyze the performance of RAKE receiver for impulse radio-ultra wide band (IR-UWB) systems in indoor multipath radio channel. Pulse position modulation-time hopping (PPM-TH) signal is considered. And we also consider three types of RAKE receivers, which are ideal RAKE, selective RAKE, and partial RAKE receivers. The indoor channel is modeled as the modified Saleh and Valenzuela (SV) model which has been proposed as a UWB channel model by the IEEE group, IEEE 802.15.SG3a.

In this paper, we derive the BER performance of an asynchronous DS/CDMA system and analyze the improvement of BER performance through turbo coding and RAKE receiver in multipath Rayleigh fading and impulsive noise environments. As a result, impulsive noise affects the performance of the system more than multipath fading in lower $E_b/N_o$ than a certain threshold. However, in higher $E_b/N_o$, multipath fading are more dominant than impulsive noise. It is found that in lower $E_b/N_o$, turbo code improves the performance of the system against impulsive noise, and in higher $E_b/N_o$, RAKE receiver improves the performance of the system against multipath fading. Therefore, great improvement can be obtained by employing turbo code and RAKE receiver in multipath Rayleigh fading and impulsive noise environments.

In a frequency selective fading channel, Pre-Rake diversity technique provides simple receiver structure and sufficient diversity effect for mobile terminals. However, conventional Pre-Rake systems are more severely affected than Rake systems with regard to multiple access interference since the number of multipaths received at the mobile unit is nearly twice that of the Rake systems. In order to overcome the problem, a Pre-Rake TDD-CDMA system using zero correlation duration (ZCD) spreading code is proposed. Modified ZCD codes including guard interval (GI) is also proposed and the performance is evaluated by computer simulation under the condition of various channel environment.

Pre-Rake CDMA system using multiple transmit antenna provides a good system performance without equipping a complicated RAKE combiner at the mobile receiver. However, the performance of the Pre-Rake systems are significantly affected by channel estimation error so that the effect of the channel estimation error should be considered and analyzed for evaluating the system performance. In this paper, MISO(Multi-Input Multi-output) Pre-Rake CDMA system with channel estimation error is analyzed by numerical analysis and the results are compared with that of the computer simulation. From the numerical results, it is found that the performance of the Pre-Rake system is more affected by the phase error than the amplitude error.

This paper proposes a joint timing synchronization, channel estimation, and data detection for the impulse radio ultra-wideband systems. The proposed timing synchronizer consists of coarse and fine timing estimation. The synchronizer discovers synchronization points in two stages and performs adaptive threshold based on the maximum pulse averaging and maximum (MAX-PA) method for more precise synchronization. Then, iterative channel estimation is performed based on the discovered synchronization points, and data are detected using the selective rake (S-RAKE) detector employing maximal ratio combining. The proposed synchronizer produces two signals-the start signal for channel estimation and the start signal for start frame delimiter (SFD) detection that detects the packet synchronization signal. With the proposed synchronization, channel estimation, and SFD detection, an S-RAKE receiver with binary pulse position modulation binary phase-shift keying modulation was constructed. In addition, an IEEE 802.15.4a channel model was used for performance comparison. The comparison results show that the constructed receiver yields high performance close to perfect synchronization.

The performance of mobile radio communication system is dependent on various factors such as channel environment. Especially, the number of multipath components of mobile radio channel and multipath delay property in CDMA system for different bandwidths are changed. Therefore, using multipath components, Rake receiver provides improvement of performance of W-CDMA system is evaluated by computer simulation over the types of ITU-R wideband channel model and spreading rate. The result shows that the performance of CDMA adapting RAKE receiver is Improved by the increase of multipath components in equal level of the received power.

The MC-CDMA(Multi-Code CDMA) systems for handling various data transmission rate which is demanded in the IMT-2000 systems are effective transmission technology, which can provide the higher data service than the conventional IS-95 CDMA systems because a user takes advantage of a number of channels. The receiver of MC-CDMA systems to be provided these data service have to be structured of demodulating simultaneously a number of traffic channels. This paper is designed the merged rake receiver demodulating simultaneously a number of traffic channels in the MC-CDMA systems. The merged rake receiver is to reduce the complexity of receiver resulting a number of channels.

Performance analysis and comparison of the hybrid DS-SFH spread-spectrum (SS) system using coherent MSK and QPSK modulation techniques over Rayleigh fading channel are considered in the presence of MTJ(multi-tone jamming). To analyze the BER performance of the hybrid systems with or without the Rake receiver, signal-to-noise plus interference ratio is derived as a function of the average signal-to-noise ratio, the jammer-to-signal ratio and other system parameters. Numerical results show that the performance difference between the two modulation schemes, MSK and QPSK, is negligible for low JSR, while it becomes significant with the increase of JSR. In multi-path Rayleigh fading channel without Rake receiver, the performances of the two modulation schemes are slightly improved as the DS spreading gain is increased when the total SS bandwidth is fixed. In particular, there is an optimum DS spreading gain for large JSR, in which a minimum BER is achieved, while only DS spreading gives the best performance for small JSR. For hybrid systems with Rake receiver, it is shown that the hybrid system of the MSK modulation scheme provides better anti-jamming performance and larger performance improvement with the increase of multi-path resolution capability of Rake receiver than that of QPSK modulation for all conditions.

Satellite-Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(S-DMB) systems are single frequency networks which consist of a satellite and gap fillers. Though gap fillers are required to extend the coverage to NLOS(Non Line-of-Sight) area, the receiver performance can be degraded with a limited number of fingers due to the increased number of multi-paths. The paper proposes to use frequency domain equalizer(FDE) instead of conventional Rake receiver, where the guard interval is not considered in order to minimize the impact on the current S-DMB systems. Through a campaign of simulations, it is found that the proposed FDE is less sensitive to the number of gap fillers compared to the conventional Rake receiver, and can achieve a greater channel capacity in most channel environments.

This paper analysis the performance of joint receiving structure consisting of the decorrelating multiuser detection and beamfromenr-RAKE receive for DS-CDMA communication systems. In asynchronous transmission as the number of simultaneous users increase. the capacity of CDMA system becomes severly reduced due to the nonideal orthogonality between user-assigned PN sequences and improper power control. Accordingly, the CDMA receiving system becomes vulnerable to the multiple access interferences and the near-far problem under multipath fading channel environment. To withstand these undesired performance degradations, this paper proposes the new type of multiuser detection which has a form of the hybrid structure of concatenating beamformer-RAKE receiver and decorrelating multiuser detection. the beam former-RAKE receiver performs temporal and spatial diversity combining with alleviating fading effect and suppressing undesired interferences, and the multiuser detection plays a role of making the receiver robust to the near-far problem. Regarding the individual merit on the usage of either multiuser detection or beamformer-RAKE receiver, the hybrid one is expected to produce the enhanced performance in multipath fading CDMA channel. However major drawback of using decorrelating multiuser detection for practical deployment is arised from its computational complexity , which is exponentially increased as more number of users and transmitted symbols involve. To diminish the computational complexity, this paper exploits an efficient block Toeplitz inversion technique using matrix Levinson polynomial will be introduced. And this paper provided the mathematical analysis to show the efficiency of the proposed joint structure under the multipath propagation environment. And results of a series of exhaustive computer simulations are presented in order to demonstrate the overall performance of the proposed hybrid structure in multipath fading CDMA channel.
