摘要
A mobile satellite indoor signal is proposed to model perfor mance of cooperative communication protocols and maximal ra tio combining.Cooperative diversity can improve the reliability of satellite system and increase data speed or expand cell radi us by lessening the effects of fading.Performance is determined by measured bit error rates（BERs）in different types of coopera tive protocols and indoor systems（e.g.GSM and WCDMA net works）.The effect of performance on cooperative terminals lo cated at different distances from an indoor cellular system is al so discussed.The proposed schemes provide higher signal-tonoise ratio（SNR）-around 1.6 dB and 2.6 dB gap at BER 10-2for amplify-and-forward（AF）and decode-and-forward（DF）cooperative protocols,respectively,when the cooperative termi nal is located 10 m from the WCDMA indoor system.Coopera tive protocols improve effective power utilization and,hence,improve performance and cell coverage of the mobile satellite network.
