description | This dissertation is aimed at research on mitigation techniques to reduce the
negative effects in a wireless communication system. We analyze and calculate the
numerical relationship between bit error rate and signal-to-noise ratio. We also
simulate and observe various multipath propagations over a wireless fading channel.
Horizontal and vertical comparison of the improvements brought about by different
diversity combining techniques is listed.
Firstly, conventional diversity combining techniques including selection
combining, maximum-ratio combining, and equal-gain combining, are applied.
Meanwhile, we state the optimum combining technique for different modulation and
demodulation schemes, especially refers to the coherent and non-coherent
modulation. Then the generalization selection combining is proposed, by plotting the
second-order selection combining, both in theoretical and simulated results, to
achieve the sub-optimum performance with less system complexity. Based on the
theoretical analysis which was published by the recent researchers, we do a complete
comparison in this dissertation depending on the simulations, and as a result, this
dissertation investigates the feasibility of the second-order selection combining as an
alternative of the optimum diversity combining in simulated results. |
