Need of an equivalent channel model• Real channel models (Pedestrian, Indoor…) have paths delays that are
not multiple of the chip period Tc
• Simulations, therefore, need several samples per chip
• Aim: Equivalent channel
• Equivalence criterium:
signal after the channel or at the output of the Rake receiver
• Avantages: 1 sample per chip and one can discard the filters’ influence

Former works
• J. G. Proakis [1]: equivalence at the channel output
• Filter u(t) is band limited
• Fechtel [2]: equivalence at the channel output• Projection to basis {u(t-nTc)}n :
• Mutually dependant paths
• The number of coefficients (paths) is large

Chip equivalent channel (1)• Assumptions : channel perfectly known, perfect spreading, WCDMA
• Output of the Rake receiver:
• Characteristic function of the energy
• G: Autocorrelation matrix of the filters, C: covariance matrix of the channel taps• D is the diagonal matrix of CG

Chip equivalent channel (2)• Definition of the equivalent channel
• Average powers of the paths: values of the diagonal of D
• Same performance for an uncoded system
• Placing the paths at multiples of Tc there’s no influence of the filters.
• Let’s consider γk’=h’
k*.h’
k with h’k a vector with L Gaussian processes of the
diagonal matrix D
• We proved the equality of the two processes γk and γk’
same performance after decoding channel is equivalent

Annotations
• Avantages• The paths are mutually independant, i.e uncorrelated
• Reduction of the number of paths is possible
• Comparison between channel models
• Limitations• Inter-Symbol-Interference and Inter-Path-Interference(residual correlation) are
different

Conclusions
• Chip equivalent model for WCDMA systems
• mutually independant paths
• Reduction of the number of paths possible
• ISI and IPI is neglected (true for spreading factor > 16)
• order and exact place (at which multiple of Tc) of the paths are to be defined according to
needs
