Abstract: | A noncoherent tracking loop with diversity reception and multipath interference cancellation is proposed for direct-sequence spread-spectrum systems on frequency-selective multipath fading channels. The basic idea of the loop is to reproduce the multipath interference and remove it from the received signal, and then a path diversity is embedded in the loop to improve the loop performance. The tracking error performance of the loop is evaluated by linear analyses and computer simulations. Numerical results show that the proposed tracking loop outperforms the traditional delay locked loop and performs very well under all considered fading conditions |
