Abstract :
The performance of the noncoherent code tracking loop designed at the baseband for CDMA applications is analyzed in detail. An analytical closed-form formula for steady-state jitter variance is derived as a function of the pulse shaping filter, timing offset, signal-to-interference ratio, and loop filter coefficients. The performance of the designed tracking loop is evaluated for various design parameters together with verification by computer simulations. Finally, the degradation of BER performance due to timing errors is also investigated for the IMT-2000 system designed by the ETRI
