MC-CDMA is a digital modulation technique where a single data symbol is transmitted at multiple subcarriers which are orthogonal to each other. With this technique, frequency diversity can be achieved. The performance of MC-CDMA systems is analyzed, when data is transmitted over multi-path and Doppler fading channel. The performance of this technique, gauged by the average bit error rate, is numerically analyzed for the system with the application of antenna diversity and error control coding.

For the purpose of providing high data rate real-time services, radio transmission technologies for ship ad-hoc network based on the Recommendation ITU-R 1842-1 are designed. In order to increase the link throughput of real-time services, in this paper, we investigate the performance of the SANET with the spatial transmit diversity techniques are employed. Based on the analysis of the packet error rate and throughput, we select the efficient multiple antenna schemes for SANET to improve the link reliability.

The spatial correlation (SC) for a multipath environment based on a $2{\times}2$ MIMO system are computed on the observation planes in the Rayleigh/Rician fading channels inside a mode stirred chamber. The correlation coefficients were obtained and compared for different distances and orthogonal polarization between two transmit antennas. The proposed method is useful for quantifying the potential diversity gain in antenna diversity systems.

In time division duplex (TDD) code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, chip-synchronous transmission in the uplink is obtainable, thus leading to free multiple access interference in flat Rayleigh fading channels plus additive white Gaussian noise. This motivates us to develop a novel cooperative transmission strategy that allows single-antenna devices to benefit from spatial diversity using orthogonal signature sequences. The proposed cooperation is applicable to many digital modulation methods and achieves the fullest diversity level, low implementation complexity, and a full data rate. Closed-form bit-error-rate expressions were also derived and compared to simulation results in order to evaluate its validity. A variety of numerical results demonstrated the cooperation's superiority over single transmission under the same transmit power constraint.

In this paper, we provide the performance analyses of a dual-hop amplify-and-forward(AF) relay transmission composed of asymmetric radio-frequence(RF) and free-space optical(FSO) links. In the mixed RF/FSO system, a relay is equipped with two receive antennas for RF signals and one additional transmit antenna for FSO signals. In order to improve a performance of RF link, a switch-and-stay (SSC) diversity technique is applied at the relay which can provide a proper link performance with a low complexity. Specifically, we offer the performance analyses of the proposed system in terms of outage probability and secrecy outage probability. In numerical examples, we compare the system performances with no diversity and selection combining systems and verify our analytical results via computer-based Monte-Carlo simulations.

A low-complexity dual-user multiplexing scheme is proposed for a pair of mobiles equipped with single antenna operating over frequency-selective fading channels. The proposed scheme employs OFDM transmission scheme with a modified version of a space-frequency code and a low-complexity PIC-SIC group detection is invoked at the corresponding receiver. The BER performances of the proposed scheme are studied using LTE-like parameters through simulations and are compared against those of conventional ZF and ML schemes.

In this paper, beamforming algorithm is proposed which can obtain diversity gain in beamforming system that deploy antenna elements with half-wavelength. The proposed algorithm provides beam-pattern using eigen-vectors that span received signal subspace. The criterion to decide optimal rank of eigen-space used for beamforming is also proposed. A beamforming system applied the proposed algorithm shows better performance with diversity gain as getting larger angle spread. This paper provides a description of proposed algorithm with analysis of the performance using various computer simulations.

Interference occurs by signals received from directions that were different from the signals of the users in a mobile communication system. Various studies have been undertaken, including diversity, equalizer, etc., in order to reduce interference. In this study, the weighted value of the array antenna was obtained to improve signal-to-noise ratio. The weighted value was obtained as an eigen value and an eigen vector by using the correlation coefficient of the signal. The weighted value obtained was then applied to the CDMA system to increase system performance and capacity. Both QPSK and OQPSK modulation systems were applied to analyze performance.

In this paper, a mathematical formulation of protection ratio and its calculation method are suggested for a radio relay system with diversity techniques. The analysis of protection ratio and its physical meaning have been performed for the space or frequency diversity system, and in particular protection ratios are reviewed in terms of the parameters of diversity improvement factor, which comprises antenna gain, separation distance between antennas, frequency and its difference between carriers, and distance. As one of simulated results, the co-channel protection ratio of 60 dB is obtained for the space diversity system regarding 6.2 GHz, 60 km, 64-QAM, and 25 m between antennas, which gives 15 dB less than the co-channel protection ratio of the non-space diversity system. In addition, the co-channel protection ratio for the frequency diversity system gives 64 dB in case of frequency offset of 0.5 GHz under the same conditions as the space diversity system, which brings about 11 dB less than the co-channel protection ratio of non-frequency diversity system. In consequency, it is interesting to note that the space diversity system is less sensitive to interference in comparison to the frequency diversity system and provides better quality of service for a given interference.

This paper proposes an alternate time-switched space-frequency block coding transmission technique for orthogonal frequency division modulation systems. There are two antennas in the transmitter but it still has only a baseband and RF and a switch that alternates between the antennas at every symbol timing. Alternating transmit symbols result in zeros that make maximal ratio receive combining possible in the receiver. Simulation results show that it provides better performance than the traditional algorithm at the expense of one additional antenna.
