Multiple tone interference of multicarrier frequency-hopping BPSK system for a Rayleigh fading channel with channel estimation errors

摘要

In this paper, we analyze the error probability performance of an uncoded multicarrier frequency-hopping coherent binary phase-shift keying (MC-FH/BPSK) signal transmitted over a Rayleigh fading channel with multitone interference (MTI) and channel estimation errors. The channel estimation errors are modeled as Gaussian random variables. The performance in presence of worst case MTI is evaluated as a function of signal to noise ratio (SNR), signal to jamming ratio, and channel estimation errors. The effect of channel estimation errors on the error probability performance is investigated in presence and absence of MTI. It is shown, from the analytical results that when channel estimation errors are not neglected, the asymptotic error probability performance for high SNR exhibits an error floor even in the absence of MTI. Worst case MTI causes large increase in this error floor. It is also shown that increasing the subband order L enhances the system performance against multitone interference.
