Improving Channel Capacity in Wireless Network by Mitigating Co-Channel Interference and Channel Fading Effects

Abstract

In this paper, techniques for increasing the capacity of a wireless system are described. The performance of different diversity schemes used to mitigate the fading effects is studied. It is also presented in this work, that apart from diversity combiners, the choice of modulation also has varying effects on fading mitigation. The effect of co-channel interference and channel fading on the data bits transmitted is considered. A practical requirement such as, that, systems must also have full-duplex provision, is taken care in this work. It is presented in this work, that the effects of flat fading may be reduced using diversity techniques.
