Performance of Two-Hop DS-CDMA Systems Using Amplify-and-Forward Protocol over Different Fading Channels

This study analyses the performance of directsequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) based on two-hop amplify-and-forward protocol over Weibull symmetric fading channels as well as Rayleigh/Rician, Rician/Rayleigh asymmetric fading phenomenas. We investigate the bit-error rate (BER) of the considered system using multiple relays by considering the effect of Weibull fading parameter and Rician K factor on the system performance. Our simulation results demonstrate the positive impacts of the value of fading parameter, Rician K factor and increasing number of relay nodes on BER performance. It is also confirmed that the Rician K factor is more effective on the system performance over Rician/Rayleigh fading channels in comparison with Rayleigh/Rician fading environment

Effective Capacity Performance of α-κ-μ Fading Channels

In this work, a closed-form expression is derived for effective capacity of α-κ-μ fading channels. Then, an asymptotic expression is also proposed for the effective capacity of the considered channel model. In addition, an investigation of truncation error analysis is carried out for the infinite series representation which is included in the derived expression. Finally, the effective capacity performance is presented by obtaining the analytical results for different values of fading parameter with simulation results

Effect of repetition coding on the BER performance of interleave-division multiple access systems

This paper investigates the bit error rate (BER) performance of interleave-division multiple access (IDMA) schemes to show the effect of repetition coding on the system performance. The considered system is tested in the presence of repetition coding by varying system parameters such as number of simultaneous users, data length, spread length, iteration number, and code rate over additive white Gaussian noise channels. In addition, the performance of the considered system is also illustrated in Rayleigh flat fading channels for a more realistic scenario. Our simulation results show that the BER performance of IDMA systems with repetition coding can achieve significant performance gains over existing uncoded IDMA schemes
