On the distribution of relevant radio channel figures in different propagation environments for performance evaluation of WCDMA systems

Abstract: A statistical distribution for the number of CDMA RAKEfingers N7; to be assigned in order to track a given percent of the total received power has been derived. The obtained distribution reveals a strong dependence of NT on the system bandwidth, the median rms delay spread, its standard deviation and other environment spec@c parameters. Also, a statistical distribution for the fading width h.5! is presented. Some numerical results for both NTand b a r e presented as afunction of the system bandwidth at differe… Show more

“…Unfortunately, the processing complexity for DS-CDMA receivers grows very quickly with the spread spectrum bandwidth. For instance, the number of rake fingers needed to capture a certain fraction of a users energy at the antenna roughly triples for every 10x increase in bandwidth [29]. In contrast, multi-carrier techniques like orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) are much more capable of practically dealing with frequency selective fading.…”
