Abstract :
Packet throughput is analysed and simulated for a slow FH/SSMA network with an adaptive antenna array and packet combining in a Rayleigh fading channel with shadowing. It is shown that pre-processing by the adaptive antenna array and post-processing by packet combining are effective at improving the reception performance of an FH/SSMA network
