The analysis is based on the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) and the maximum likelihood theory, and takes into account the effects of the system design parameters as well as the effects of biased measurements, which can result for example from hardware calibration errors or multipath effects, including the lack of line of sight. Explicit formulas that provide a clear relationship between the various system design parameters and the positioning accuracy are derived and discussed. Finally, the theory is verified with numerical simulations.","PeriodicalId":162055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings IEEE 56th Vehicular Technology Conference","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131459396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Coherent detection dictates that a per-subband estimate of the frequency response of the channel is generated for each OFDM symbol. This is achieved by inserting pilot symbols amongst the data symbols in the OFDM modulation grid. With suitable interpolation, the channel estimate at all intermediate symbols can be generated. A number of channel estimation methods with different pilot patterns and interpolation methods are examined for a range of UTRA specified channel environments. Each environment is shown to have an optimal pilot scheme, power level, pattern and density and the paper proposes the use of adaptive pilot processing.","PeriodicalId":162055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings IEEE 56th Vehicular Technology Conference","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133965411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated by computer simulation in terms of blocking rate and forced termination rate of a TDD-SDMA/TDMA system in a multi-cell wireless system, and it is also compared with an open-loop power control scheme. The numerical results show that the system with the closed-loop power control has significantly better performance than that with the open-loop power control.

It applies the source routing mechanism defined by the dynamic source routing (DSR) unicast protocol to avoid channel overhead and to improve scalability.

The interference incurred by using such a transmission technique is often overlooked, resulting in optimistic performance evaluations. The multicode interference contribution is expressed in closed-form. This multicode contribution can be integrated to existing capacity studies without great restructuring needs. The performance degradation is assessed by using a multi-cell multi-service system-level simulation tool that evaluates the capacity of the system with and without multicode interference. The simulation tool parameters are based on principles and assumptions of 3GPP. The main results of this study show that a network with high-rate users in a vehicular environment can suffer from a substantial performance degradation due to multicode transmission, especially if the orthogonality between channelization codes cannot be maintained.","PeriodicalId":162055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings IEEE 56th Vehicular Technology Conference","volume":"121 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132987551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
