A Modular Scheme to Detect and Combat Sinusoidal Variation in Fading Channels

Abstract

Fading estimation in wireless communication systems depend on an expected fading model and assumptions about the channel itself. The bit error rate (BER) performance of the communication system is affected by how closely the assumptions made in de-signing the estimation technique match the deployment environment. Any unforeseen disturbances or hindrances in the environment deteriorate the BER performance of the system when the estimation system is not designed to combat the same. To combat such obstacles, estimation techniques must either be reinforced with modular systems which combat such observed types of disturbances, or be redesigned as a whole consid-ering such observations of disturbances. In this paper a modular scheme to detect and combat sinusoidal variation in fading power is developed and tested by employing the developed scheme in a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system which adopts Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) techniques.
