The instantaneous performance of a site diversity system is analyzed. This analysis is performed using instantaneous diversity gain (a new parameter for describing diversity performance) and the correlation coefficient. Also, a relationship between the correlation coefficient and instantaneous diversity gain was established.
In addition, a review of statistical diversity gain and existing models of statistical diversity gain were also presented. Measured statistical diversity gain data from the VPI&SU site diversity experiment were also presented and compared with instantaneous diversity gain.
The relationship between the correlation coefficient and instantaneous diversity gain was used to present a crude model of diversity gain. This model was compared with the model of Hodge.
Margin calculations were performed to display the usefulness of instantaneous diversity gain. These were performed using the VPI&SU site diversity experiment data. / Master of Science
