Studies on transreceive diversity schemes (including "polarization-sense" antenna diversity) for wireless communication systems
- Date Issued:
- 2004
- Summary:
- The research addressed in this study and deliberated in the dissertation is broadly tied to finding hybrid methods of diversity compatible for modern wireless applications. The hybrid strategy advocated thereof involves a combined use of space- (antenna and polarization), frequency-, and time-diversity schemes in a judicious manner so as to realize a desirable BER versus Eb/No performance across RF links that face multipath and other unwanted EM artifacts. The underlying reason for the hybrid scheme as above is to replace multiple-antenna based transreceive diversity. Such multiple antennas would otherwise require large base station real estate and may not be compatible for hand-held (space-constrained) RF units. On the contrary, use of hybrid schemes would restrict multiple number of antennas and conserves the space. After analyzing a set of plausible techniques of hybrid diversity compatible for modern wireless techniques, a focused study has been done on polarization-sense (PS) antenna diversity scheme. Its fruitful application for indoor systems (like Bluetooth(TM)/ZigBee(TM)) against multipath effects is demonstrated via simulation and experimental studies. Further, the PS-antenna diversity is shown to offer improved BER versus Eb/N o performance in pilot channels used in CDMA2000 systems. Also, such PS-diversity is shown to help improving the GPS receiver performance under RFI/jamming environment. The technique and heuristics proposed towards the PS-antenna diversity scheme imply novel and hitherto unexplored efforts in wireless communications. Lastly the dissertation concludes summarizing the results and offers open-questions for further studies.
