The PC/SS systems are partial-code-parallel multicode SS systems, which have high-rate data transmission capability. Nakagami-m distribution is assumed as fading channel model to cover a wide range of fading conditions. The SNR and fading parameter estimation considered in this letter is based on only a statistical ratio of correlator outputs at the receiver. Numerical results show that SNR estimation performance with fading parameter estimation is close to the one in the case of perfect fading parameter information, if the number of transmitting PN codes is less than a half of assigned PN codes.}, pages = {1495--1499}, title = {Online SNR and Fading Parameter Estimation for Parallel Combinatorial SS Systems in Nakagami Fading Channels}, volume = {E87-A}, year = {2004} }
