A beamformer-Rake receiver is a computationally feasible solution to allow temporal-spatial signal processing for effectively overcoming signal fading and MAI. In this paper, the performance of PSA beamformer-Rake receivers in the Geometrically Based Single Bounce (GBSB) circular channel with the uplink W-CDMA signal standard has been investigated. The Least Mean Square (LMS) and the Recursive Least Square (RLS) as PSA-based beamforming techniques have been considered. Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) coherent RAKE receiver with different number of fingers is considered for simulation. The performances of the aforementioned two PSA-based beamforming techniques are compared in terms of BER against number of users in the following scenarios: antenna elements, RAKE fingers, and beamforming algorithms. ©2008 IEEE. date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-51849104764&doi=10.1109%2fICCCE.2008.4580651&partnerID=40&md5=39ed905934e135f72a85e651db607d72 id_number: 10.1109/ICCCE.2008.4580651 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings of the International Conference on Computer and Communication Engineering 2008, ICCCE08: Global Links for Human Development place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur pagerange: 483-488 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424416929 citation: Ahmed Jad Elrab, A.M. and Kamel, N.S.
