Enhancing MIMO System Performance in Fading Channels Through TAS-MRC with Advanced Error Detection and Correction

Abstract

The Multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) systems are becoming increasingly important in modern wireless communication due to their capacity to increase data speeds and enhance reliability. Using the Transmit Antenna Selection (TAS) and Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC), Manchester coding, and Hamming error correction, this research investigates how to improve MIMO system performance in the presence of fading channels like Rayleigh and Rician. In this study TAS's effect on antenna choice at the receiver end using extensive simulations. The chosen antennas are then used in MRC, a method that mixes signals from various antennas to lessen signal fading. Error correction in transit is handled via Hamming codes, whereas Manchester coding is used to improve error detection. Our results show that the performance of the Bit Error Rate (BER) can be significantly enhanced by combining TAS, MRC, Manchester coding, and Hamming error correction. In this study the BER performance is compared in several scenarios, including those with Rayleigh and Rician fading channels. Our research illustrates the compromises between performance improvement and computational complexity in addition to shedding insight on the synergistic impacts of different strategies. This study also concludes that TAS, MRC, and coding approaches have the potential to importantly improve the robustness and efficiency of MIMO systems. These discoveries help move wireless communication systems forward and point the way for further study.
