Performance Evaluation For Communication Systems With Receive Diversity And Interference, Debang Lao Aug 2003

Performance Evaluation For Communication Systems With Receive Diversity And Interference, Debang Lao

Dissertations

Optimum combining (OC) is a well-known coherent detection technique used to combat fading and suppress cochannel interference. In this dissertation, expressions are developed to evaluate the error probability of OC for systems with multiple interferers and multiple receiving branches. Three approaches are taken to derive the expressions. The first one starts from the decision metrics of OC. It facilitates obtaining closed-form expressions for binary phase-shift keying modulation. The second approach utilizes the moment generating function of the output signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and results in expressions for symbol and bit error probability for multiple phaseshift keying modulation. …


Low Interference Routing For Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks, Mohit Gupta Aug 2003

Low Interference Routing For Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks, Mohit Gupta

Theses

In this thesis the primary focus is on the problem of interference between messages. The thesis discusses why the messages are blocked in a system? How adding a message impacts the cost of all other available links, which can be established in the system.

This thesis analyzes how the availability of channels, increase in number of nodes and increase in the transmission range help in increasing the number of messages that can be handled in the network. It is also analyzes how critical is the selection of the maximum transmission range MTR, transmission range TR and required transmission range RTR. …
