Abstract
Mobile communications is characterized by fluctuating signal levels and additive interference from in-cell and outer-cells, which directly affect the communicated signals and result in time-varying signal quality (signal to interference plus noise power ratio - SINR) that requires special means to combat these effects and provide reliable communications. Among the most important means utilized are error-correcting codes, power control and diversity. When operating repeaters in a CDMA network, additional issues are introduced, including the application of diversity techniques to repeaters, the interaction of the repeater diversity operation with the BTS, the repeater backhaul support of diversity, and — on a different scale, the application of diversity to the repeater backhaul link. These issues are addressed in this chapter.
