One of the big problems in wireless communication channels is the multipath fading. Almost all environments suffer for this multipath which is caused when the receiver receive more than one signal path because of diffraction, reflection, shadowing and scattering. Each path has different properties which cause more complexity in the receiver end to recover the transmitted signal especially in the
Bit Error Rate (BER) and Bit Energy to Noise Ratio performance of the 1-D RAKE receiver without , with Space Time Transmit Diversity (STTD) and 2-D RAKE without , with (STTD) and also without and with beamforming for WCDMA over Rayleigh Channel in presence of Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel is demonstrated with purpose of making simulation of m-files developed in Matlab.Results are evaluated in terms of BER and considering the number of Base Station (BS) transmit antennas (1-D RAKE and 2-D RAKE receivers), and the number of RAKE fingers (1-D RAKE r
