Performances of decorrelating MUD using STBC for image transmissions in rayleigh fading channel

摘要

The scope of this paper is to simulate and analyse the effect of Rayleigh flat fading on the performances of the decorrelating multiuser detector (MUD) when grey-type images are transmitted through a CD/CDMA system. To reduce the fading effects Multiple - Input Single/Multiple - Output (MISO, MIMO) radio channels will be taken into consideration and the received images will be compared with the original ones using three metrics, namely: the bit error rate, the peak signal-to-noise ratio and the structural similarity index.
