The approach used in this paper uses the probability that the tracking loop will lose lock-in (P/sub L/) as a measure of performance which is evaluated as a function of multipath spread of the channel (/spl tau//sub d/) and mobile unit velocity. The results show that when /spl tau//sub d/>0.455 chip duration (T/sub c/) the performance of the PN tracking loop degrades substantially; i.e., P/sub L/>10/sup -5/. Similarly, the mobile unit's velocity has an influence on the performance of the PN tracking loop. Results indicate that for constant mobile unit velocity, the velocity affects the rate at which the loop responds to changes in tracking errors due to noise.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.

Two basic frequency planning alternatives can be distinguished: one can either divide the available spectrum into two dedicated parts for BCCH and TCH frequencies respectively or use the entire band for both BCCH and TCH frequencies. The goal with this study has been to investigate which one to prefer, from an interference point of view, in a tightly planned frequency hopping system. Simulations of an interference limited system have been performed. The focus is on the downlink performance, i.e. it is assumed that the downlink is the limiting link in the system. The results show that using dedicated frequency bands for the BCCH and TCH is superior in the downlink. The second strategy, using the entire band for both BCCH and TCH frequencies, will suffer from heavy disturbance in the downlink mainly from BCCH transmitters and the gain from power control and discontinuous transmission cannot be fully utilized. Multiple reuse patterns, a frequency planning concept based on the dedicated bands method has also been analysed.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.

A technique for combining outputs at the receiver in a packet-based wireless system is presented. The technique is analyzed for a mobile channel and a system that employs Reed-Solomon coding and bounded-distance errors-and-erasures decoding. Performance results show that a receiver employing packet combining provides significant gains in throughput and reductions in packet error probability when compared with a receiver that does not employ combining. Useful results and calculations for general (n,k) q-ary block codes have been also established. These results include expressions for the probability of repeating particular decoder errors with successive retransmissions.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.

This reuse factor is determined by the performance of the user at the cell boundary. Consequently this scheme does not take advantage of the higher reception quality of users close to the base station. Underlay overlay (UO) systems that have been proposed for TDMA cellular networks take advantage of the high reception quality of users close to the base station and improve the frequency efficiency of the system. In this paper a multilayered UO system is considered where the layer boundaries are defined by the mean C/I threshold. The analysis presented considers the dimensioning of multilayered UO systems and the frequency efficiency of the UO system is compared with the conventional single layered frequency reuse systems. The analysis shows that the UO system can provide 25-40% and 20-25% improvement in frequency efficiency in GSM and IS-54 TDMA (DAMPS) networks respectively.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.

Two suboptimal schemes for joint channel estimation and symbol detection are developed, namely, the decision-directed symbol-by-symbol detection and the per-survivor sequence detection. A differentially coherent detection scheme is also considered. Finally, the performance of these adaptive detectors are assessed by simulations. A salient feature of the adaptive receivers proposed is that their implementations can be mapped to VLSI systolic arrays to exploit massively parallel signal processing computation.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.

It improves both C/I ratio and trunk efficiency. In this paper, we use a computer simulation to compare the capacity among omni, 3-sector, Lee's micro cell, 6 sector and a 12-antenna switched beam smart antenna. First, the C/I ratios under different pathless exponent and reuse factor are compared within these systems. Then, the trunking efficiencies among these systems are also compared. As the result shows, the smart antenna does support a reasonably good C/I ratio, and the highest trunking efficiency. This simulator is also enhanced to calculate the path loss exponent for specific design areas based on the collected measured data. This path loss exponent then can be used as input to the simulator to simulate the C/I and frequency reuse factor for the area. Measured data were collected in LA. Path loss exponents were calculated using Lee's propagation model. Based on the calculated path loss exponent and the simulator, in a dense urban area, the smart antenna system can support a k=3 reuse scheme.","PeriodicalId":389634,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE 47th Vehicular Technology Conference.
