Performance of space-time processing for ISI- and CCI-suppression in industrial scenarios

Abstract

This paper shows simulation results of the performance of linear and decision-feedback space-time equalizers for a single carrier system with 24 Msym/s data rate at 5.2 GHz carrier frequency. Thereby the radio channel is realistically modeled by using measurement data of a vector channel sounder gathered in two industrial scenarios. A comparison is given for a variety of equalizer complexities, various channel conditions and different numbers of co-channel interferers. For a proper selection of the complexity good performance values can be obtained under the presence of strong multipath propagation.
