In this work, for a CDMA communication, the per user carrier-to-interference ratio (CINR) enhancement in the Reverse Link (mobile to base station) is analyzed using different antenna array spatial combining algorithms: Optimal Combining (OC) Versus Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) in a multi-rate (combined voice and data users) multi-antenna scenario. The ratio of the CINR for OC vs. MRC is directly analyzed, i.e. Z=CINROC/CINRMRC. Exact solutions are derived for the statistics of a per user CINROC/CINRMRC improvement, as a function of the high-level interference power to background noise, the...
