Abstract :
A transmission diversity scheme based upon antenna hopping is investigated for packet radio transmission for a typical urban environment. Our simulation results reveal that the gain obtained with antenna hopping at high speed is not significant. However, considerable gain is observed for low code rates such as CSI in GPRS, and MCS 5 and MCS 6 in EGPRS.
