Abstract

A model is developed for performance analysis of a microcellular digital mobile radio system with Rayleigh-faded cochannel interference, Gaussian noise, and narrowband impulsive noise (Middleton´s Class A noise) using the differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulation technique. The desired signal is assumed to be Rician faded. The effects of selection diversity on the performance are investigated and compared to the nondiversity case. The performance is measured in terms of bit error probability and spectrum efficiency. The influence of reuse distance (i.e. cluster size), traffic intensity (i.e. blocking probability), impulsive index, Rician parameter, and turning point of the dual path loss law characteristic of microcells on the performance parameters is investigated in detail
