Abstract
Transmit diversity under transmission of signals from the base station to mobile station using the code-division multiple-access (CDMA) system allows us obtaining the performance gains close to the mobile station receiver diversity without complexity of the mobile station receiver antenna array. The multipath diversity can be achieved using the pre-RAKE precoding at the transmitter that could be employed and there is no need to install the RAKE receiver at the mobile station. We investigate several transmitter diversity techniques employed by wideband CDMA (W-CDMA) systems. We also study a possibility to combine transmitter diversity and precoding that achieves the gain of maximum ratio combining of all space and frequency diversity branches jointly with long-term prediction algorithm. It was demonstrated that the performance of the space-time pre-RAKE method approaches the performance of the maximum ratio combining for all space and frequency diversity branches. It is shown that all closed loop methods depend on the long range prediction to approximate the ideal performance in the fast fading environment.
