Abstract :
The performance of an adaptive multipath diversity receiver, operating in a quasi-static frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, is considered. Phase coded direct sequence spread spectrum signaling is used. The receiver formulation is presented as an extension of a previously derived result by the authors (1988). Probability-of-error expressions are presented for channels with uniform and nonuniform delay cross power spectra. The performance with multiuser interference is considered by invoking the Gaussian assumption. The validity of this assumption is verified through simulation
