Severe Performance Effects of Combined Jamming Interferences and Rayleigh Fading with Mitigation using Joint Complex Spreading and MIMO
Abstract
In communications systems under jamming interference, it is customary to employ spread spectrum
techniques to combat performance degradation. In systems with fading, spatial diversity techniques such as MIMO
schemes are usually used to mitigate the problem. Here, we analyze and show the extremely severe effects on BER
performance of the combined jamming signals and Rayleigh fading of a system undergoing both conditions at the
same time. Then, we analyze and derive the performance of systems employing joint MIMO and complex spreading
schemes to combat both Rayleigh fading and jamming and note the significant mitigation improvements.
