Performances of wireless telecommunications systems in the presence of noise, interference and fading when the sampling is done at two time instants are discussed in this dissertation. The goal of using this method is to improve reliability and increase capacity without increasing the transmission power and transmission bandwidth, compared to conventional combiner when sampling is done at one time instant. During the transmission of digitally modulated signals through communication channels some fluctuations in the amplitude of the received signal during short time intervals may occur. This phenomenon is called fading. Total fading in the system is defined as a complex combination of fading due to interference between two or more components of the signal arriving from different paths and shadowing. Efficient and at the same time cost-effective technique for reduce of fading and performance improvement are the diversity combining technique. This technique is based on the random nature of the signal propagation, since the useful signal is obtained using signals obtained from different branches of the receiver. If the signal on one path is attenuated, at some specific moment the same signal that goes through a different path can be stronger. In this way the existence of a more than one path can significantly improve system performances. In this study, the combination of the spatial diversity and sampling signals at two time points will be presented. Selection combining (SC) and switch and stay combining (SSC) represent simple and widely used techniques process only one branch of the receiver, opposed to maximum ratio combining (MRC) and equal gain combining (EGC) that use all the received signals. When using the SC combining technique, the signal at the output is equal to the highest value of the combiner’s input signal. In the case of the SSC combiner with two branches, one branch is selected, and it remains selected until the value of the signal or the signal to noise ratio stays greater than a predefined threshold. When the signal value of the first branch is less than the threshold, the combiner switches to another branch. In this dissertation the SSC combiner with two inputs at two time instants is discussed. The probability of events that combiner first analyse the signal from one of the inputs is the same as for SSC combiner which considers one time instant, and it depends on the probability distribution functions for the given threshold value at the input channels of the SSC combiner. It is assumed that the signals are not correlated between the branches of the receiver, which is the common case in mobile communications, and that there is a correlation between the signals in one branch at the two different time instants. According to the SSC combiner decision-making at two time instants, the expressions for the joint probability density functions of the signals at the output of the SSC combiner at two time instants for Rayleigh's, Nakagami-m, Rice's, Weibull, log-normal and gamma fading are obtained. In this way, one can obtain parameters that characterize the performance of a complex SSC/SC combiner. Probability density functions for the signal derivatives at the SSC combiner output at two time instances will be defined for several different fading types. For Rayleigh's, Nakagami-m, Rice's and log-normal fading, signal derivatives have normal distribution with zero mean, and they are mutually uncorrelated at two time instants, as well as with the signal itself. For Weibull and gamma distribution signal derivatives also have a normal distribution, while the variance of the derivative depends on the value of the signal, as shown in the literature. In this case it could be assumed that the signal derivatives are mutually uncorrelated. Performances of complex SSC/SC receiver at two time instants can be obtained when the signals at the output of the SSC combiner are used as the inputs of the SC combiner. For Rayleigh's, Nakagami-m, Rice's, Weibull, log-normal and gamma fading, one can obtain expressions for probability density function and outage probability at the output of the complex SSC/SC combiner. Outage probability and the average bit or symbol error rate are the most commonly used parameters for performance measures of the SSC and SC diversity system. However, in certain telecommunication wireless systems, these parameters do not provide sufficient information for the design and configuration of the system, and the second order statistics parameters are used instead, such as level crossing rate and average fade duration. This is particularly important for the calculation of the transfer speed per symbol, the length of the packet and the duration of the time slots. In this dissertation, it will be presented the second order statistics of SSC/SC receiver. Using the expressions for joint probability density function for the signal and the signal derivative at the output of the SSC combiner at two time instants, the expression for level crossing rate will be obtained. The average fade duration can be obtained using the level crossing rate and the outage probability. The subject of this dissertation is a very topical from a scientific point of view, because with the development of mobile and wireless telecommunications, the use of these systems in the transmission of telecommunications signals significantly increases. Results presented in this thesis can have many practical applications.
