Abstract:

In this paper, a cooperative single carrier system comprising multiple cooperating remote radio heads and a single interferer operating in the presence of co-existing line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight paths is investigated. Distributed cyclic delay diversity is employed as the transmit diversity scheme for cyclic-prefixed single carrier transmissions over independent but non-identically distributed frequency selective fading channels. The main focus of this paper is to investigate the achievable diversity gain in the interference-limited and noise-limited regions. In contrast to the outage probability in the noise-limited region, it is shown that the diversity gain is not achievable in the interferencelimited region. To justify this finding, the outage probability is derived first, and then verified by link-level simulations.
