Analysis of MIMO Band-Limited DS-CDMA Systems in the Presence of Multitone Jamming Over Generalized-K Fading Channels

In this paper, we study the effects of different pulse shapes on the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of a space-time transmit diversity scheme for band-limited direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) systems in the presence of multitone jamming (MTJ) over generalized-K fading channels. We consider a space-time system with two transmitter and multiple receiver antennas. Two types of band-limited pulse shapes, namely, spectrum raised cosine (SRC) and Beaulieu-Tan-Damen (BTD) pulses, are considered in the BER performance of the conventional matched-filter receiver, the decorrelator receiver, and the minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) receiver. Numerical results show that the system with BTD pulse outperforms the system with SRC pulse, and the MMSE receiver gives the best BER performance among the three receivers considered.
