Abstract

Time-varying multipath fading associated with the wireless link limits the capacity of a wireless system. In order to adapt to this adverse radio environment efficiently, we investigate the use of a pilot-aided fade-resistant transmission scheme for the uplink of a chip-interleaved code-division multiple-access (CDMA) system. We analyze the tradeoff between the number of diversity branches and the channel estimation error. We derive the optimum ratio of pilot signal energy to information signal energy. Our numerical study indicates that the proposed system is capable of outperforming the conventional CDMA system depending on the transmitter energy and channel condition.
