* Diversity techniques for flat fading channels BER vs. SNR in a flat fading channel Different kinds of diversity techniques Selection diversity performance Maximum Ratio Combining performance BER vs. SNR in a flat fading channel In a flat fading channel or narrowband system , the CIR channel impulse response reduces to a single impulse scaled by a time-varying complex coefficient. The received equivalent lowpass signal is of the form Proakis, 3rd Ed. 14-3 We assume that the phase changes “slowly” and can be perfectly tracked important for coherent detection BER vs. SNR cont. W
