Abstract

This paper addresses the performance of the downlink High Speed Data Packet Access (HSDPA) in QPSK mode. Transmit Diversity (TD) enhancement schemes such as Space Time Transmit Diversity (STTD) and Selective Transmit Diversity (STD), alongside a Power Control (PC) scheme, are covered to improve the system capacity. To evaluate the performance and the advantages of all the schemes under different conditions, several combinations of these were simulated in the AWGN, Indoor A and Pedestrian A channels. For the best combination, a gain of 11.5dB can be achieved, for a BLER of 1%.
