Transmit Diversity in the Downlink for the TETRA-TEDS System

Dominik Rutkowski,Sławomir Możdżonek-2014-03-30-Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology

TL;DRAbstract

In the paper a proposal for the improvement of performance for the TETRA Enhanced Data System (TEDS) employing transmit diversity based on two antennas in the downlink is described. The key idea of the considerations relies on using the space-frequency coding algorithm. The proposal described required some relatively simple changes to the existing TEDS’s Single Input Single Output (SISO) interface but the original number of payload and signaling symbols in the normal downlink burst is preserved. The simulation results obtained indicate a significant improvement in performance. The Eb/No parameter could be reduced from 5 to 8 dB with respect to Frame Error Rate (FER), compared to a single antenna transmission for the same FER = 10−3.
