Abstract :
Higher Order Modulation (HOM, 64-QAM) and Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) transmissions are two key features introduced in the Release 7 (HSPA+) WCDMA systems to improve downlink performance. This paper focuses on the performance analysis of 64-QAM and MIMO in the WCDMA system. We describe the equalizer design for supporting these features as well as the simulation results demonstrating the higher system throughput and better user experience provided by these features.
