Abstract
Predictions of uplink space-diversity gain in the cellular and persona l communications systems (PCS) bands (near 850 MHz and 1.9 GHz, respec tively), suffer from incomplete modeling of multipath angular spread s igma. Using previously published measurements to reduce the gap, we sh ow that sigma similar to [distance](-1/2) and that diversity gains are about 2 dB higher for PCS than for cellular.
