Abstract :
To combat the effect of multi-path fading, Rake receivers are used in conjunction with code division multiple access (CDMA) systems. In this paper, we main introduce the finger assignment method for Rake receivers. First, we will simply review the Rake receiver. Then we will investigate several kinds of finger assignment method in single cell and multi-cell conditions, respectively. By mathematical methods and Monte Carlo simulation, we will compare the performance and complexity of some schemes.
