Introduction to Spread-Spectrum Antimultipath Techniques and Their Application to Urban Digital Radio.
Abstract
In a combination tutorial and research paper, techniques for combating the effects of multipath on high-rate data transmissions via radio are explored. The tutorial aspect of the paper presents: (1) a heuristic outline of twenty-five years of work on the theory of anti-multipath radio receivers and (2) a summary of a statistical model of urban/suburban multipath. The research section of the paper presents results of analyses and simulations of various candidate receivers indicated by the theory, as they perform through urban/suburban multipath. A major result shows that megabps rates through urban multipath (which typically lasts up to 5 microsec) are quite feasible.
