Hybrid DS/SFH-SSMA with predetection diversity and coding over indoor radio multipath Rician-fading channels

The authors investigate the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of hybrid direct-sequence/slow-frequency-hopped spread-spectrum multiple-access (DS/SFH-SSMA) systems operating over a multipath Rician-fading channel (which models indoor radio propagation in factories). They consider both phase-shift-keying (PSK) modulation with coherent demodulation and differential phase-shift-keying (DPSK) modulation with noncoherent demodulation. Predetection multipath diversity (maximal ratio combining for coherent reception and equal gain combining for noncoherent reception) and simple interleaved channel coding are employed for improving the BER performance. The BER of both coherent and noncoherent hybrid systems is obtained using a Gaussian interference approximation. >
