Blind joint soft-detection assisted slow frequency-hoppingmulticarrier DS-CDMA

A novel multiple-access scheme based on slow frequency-hopping multicarrier direct-sequence, code-division multiple access (SFH/MC DS-CDMA) is proposed and investigated, which can be rendered compatible with the existing second-generation narrow-band CDMA and third-generation wide-band CDMA systems. Blind joint soft-detection of the SFH/MC DS-CDMA signals is investigated, assuming that the receiver has no knowledge of the associated frequency-hopping (FH) patterns invoked. The system's performance is evaluated over the range of Nakagami multipath fading channels. The results show that blind joint soft-detection achieves the required bit-error rate performance, while blindly acquiring the FH patterns employed. This is advantageous during the commencement of communications or during soft handover     

Multicarrier CDMA with adaptive frequency hopping for mobile radiosystems

A modified multicarrier (MC) direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) system has been proposed for use over slow multipath fading channels with frequency selectivity in the reverse link transmission of a cellular network. Instead of transmitting data substreams uniformly through subchannels, data substreams hop over subchannels with the hopping patterns adaptively adjusted to the channel fading characteristics. The problem of determining the optimal hopping pattern is formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem, for which an efficient algorithm, based on the water-filling (WF) principle, is designed to solve the problem practically. Simulation results show that the performance in terms of the average bit-error probability (BEP) (over all users) is better than that of single carrier RAKE receiver systems, conventional MC CDMA systems applying moderate error protection, or diversity systems with different combining techniques

MC DS/SFH-CDMA systems for overlay systems

We introduce the slow frequency hopping (SFH) technique to the multicarrier (MC) code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems for overlay situations. Using lower chip rate, which results in a narrower spectrum for each carrier and hopping the signal in frequency, the MC direct sequence (DS)/SFH system achieves better performance than the MC DS CDMA system in most cases, especially when the bandwidth of the narrowband interference (NBI) is narrower than one subchannel. It also exhibits a stable performance against the variations of the NBI location and bandwidth. When there is no NBI, the two systems perform approximately the same. The evaluation is performed over a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, with both Gaussian approximation and Monte Carlo simulation     

Software-defined-radio-assisted adaptive broadband frequencyhopping multicarrier DS-CDMA

Against the backdrop of the explosive expansion of the Internet and the continued dramatic increase in demand for high-speed multimedia wireless services, there is an urgent demand for flexible, bandwidth-efficient transceivers. Multistandard operation is also an important requirement for the future generations of wireless systems. This article presents a versatile broadband multiple access scheme, combining frequency hopping with multicarrier DS-CDMA (FH/MC DS-CDMA). In the short term, the proposed FH/MC DS-CDMA scheme could be employed in the existing second- and third-generation CDMA system bands. Hence, it has the potential of supporting compatibility with these existing systems. This article also shows that FH/MC DS-CDMA exhibits a high grade of flexibility in the context of system design and parameter reconfiguration. Therefore, in the long term, the proposed FH/MC DS-CDMA scheme is capable of meeting the requirements of future broadband mobile wireless systems, with the aid of introducing more advanced techniques facilitated by the employment of software-defined radios (SDR) and with the advent of efficient adaptive baseband algorithms     

Performance of group ordered successive interference cancellation for multiuser detection in GSTBC SFH/MC DS‐CDMA system

In this paper, we present a novel group space‐time block coding slow frequency‐hopping multicarrier direct‐sequence code division multiple access (GSTBC SFH/MC DS‐CDMA) system over frequency selective fading channels. The proposed scheme greatly improves the bandwidth‐efficient through assigning the users employing the same frequency‐hopping (FH) pattern. Moreover, the users employing the same FH pattern are assigned into different virtual groups, in which the users are assigned to the different spreading codes, while the users are assigned to the same spreading code in the same virtual group. Then, a novel group detection scheme that we denote by group ordered successive interference cancellation (GOSIC) is presented to suppress the interference between the different virtual groups. Our proposed scheme consists of ordering group at the receiver side in order to maximize the overall system performance, and carrying BLAST‐STBC (LSTBC) detection for the users in the same virtual group. We define and derive the optimal group order based on the post group signal to interference plus noise ratio (PGSINR). We also propose another suboptimal group order in order to overcome the complexity issues. Finally, we compare the performance of our proposed GOSIC with conventional group successive interference cancellation (GSIC), conventional STBC multiuser detection (MUD), and LSTBC‐MUD, and show that significant improvement is introduced. Finally, it is shown that the proposed scheme is robust to the imperfect channel estimation. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Multicarrier DS/SFH-CDMA systems

Multicarrier direct-sequence/slow-frequency-hopping (MC DS/SFH) code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems are proposed, in which multiple carriers are modulated by the same DS waveform and hopped in frequency according to a random hopping pattern. The receiver dehops the received signal with the same pattern, provides RAKE receivers for each carrier, and combines the outputs with a maximal ratio combiner (MRC). The performance of the proposed system is investigated over a frequency-selective Rayleigh-fading channel and compared to that of the MC DS-CDMA systems. It is shown that for the same diversity order, the MC DS/SFH-CDMA systems are superior in reducing multiple-access interference (MAI) while preserving the good capability of narrowband interference suppression, when the system parameters are selected properly.

Comparison of MC-CDMA with DS-CDMA using frequency domain and time domain RAKE receivers

In this paper a multicarrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) system with a soft decision differential phase shift keying (DPSK) frequency domain RAKE receiver is described. We compare a MC-CDMA system with a direct sequence CDMA system using RAKE receivers. In contrast with previous MC-CDMA systems, guard intervals are not used and the carriers are spaced at the reciprocal of the bit rate, optimising the usage of the bandwidth. In this way a comparison can be made between the multicarrier CDMA system described and a direct sequence (DS-CDMA) system with the same bandwidth. The results presented are received bit error rates from Monte Carlo simulations. The simulations are conducted in a multipath channel with Rayleigh fading and 300 Hz Doppler spectrum with additive white Gaussian noise. It is shown that the multicarrier CDMA matched filter receiver performs favourably compared to the direct sequence CDMA matched filter receiver for 1 -path fading. For a single user at a receive bit error rate of 1×10^–3 in the 4-path fading channel the multicarrier RAKE receiver requires no knowledge of the channel delay spread and performs 3 dB worse than the DS-CDMA RAKE receiver simulated. The performance of the MC-CDMA RAKE receiver for a single user increases with increasing channel dispersion. The performance of the DS-CDMA RAKE receiver for multiple user is superior to that of the MC-CDMA RAKE receiver.     

Rate-Distortion Optimized Video Transmission Over DS-CDMA Channels with Auxiliary Vector Filter Single-User Multirate Detection

In this paper, we consider the rate-distortion optimized resource allocation for video transmission over multi-rate wireless direct-sequence code-division-multiple-access (DS-CDMA) channels. We consider the performance of transmitting scalable video over a multipath Rayleigh fading channel via a combination of multi-code multirate CDMA and variable sequence length multirate CDMA channel system. At the receiver, despreading is done using adaptive space-time auxiliary-vector (AV) filters. We propose a new interference cancelling design that uses just a single AV filter for single-user mutirate despreading. Our experimental results show that the proposed interference cancelling design has excellent performance in scalable video transmission over DS-CDMA systems that use a combination of multicode multirate and variable processing gain multirate CDMA. The proposed design takes advantage of the fact that single user's video data is transmitted using two spreading codes, one for the base layer and one for the enhancement layers, and of the fact that these spreading codes can have different processing gains. The proposed interference cancelling design is compared with two conventional single-user multirate CDMA receiver configurations, however now we use an AV filter rather than a simple matched filter. We also propose a resource allocation algorithm for the optimal determination of source coding rate, channel coding rate and processing gain for each scalable layer, in order to minimize the expected distortion at the receiver.

Performance of generalized multicarrier DS-CDMA over Nakagami-mfading channels

A class of generalized multicarrier direct sequence code-division multiple-access (MC DS-CDMA) schemes is defined and its performance is considered over multipath Nakagami-m fading channels. The spacing between two adjacent subcarriers of the generalized MC DS-CDMA is a variable, allowing us to gain insight into the effects of the spacing on the bit error rate (BER) performance of MC DS-CDMA systems. This generalized MC DS-CDMA scheme includes the subclasses of multitone DS-CDMA and orthogonal MC DS-CDMA as special cases. We present a unified analytical framework for determining the exact average BER of the generalized MC DS-CDMA system over generalized multipath Nakagami-m (1960) fading channels. The optimum spacing of the MC DS-CDMA system required for achieving the minimum BER is investigated and the BER performance of the system having optimum spacing is evaluated. The resultant BER is compared with that of both multitone DS-CDMA and orthogonal MC DS-CDMA     

Receiver Design for Uplink Multiuser Code Division Multiple Access Communication System Based on Neural Network

In this paper, we consider the receiver design problem for the uplink multiuser code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system based on the neural network technique. The uplink multiuser CDMA communication system model is described in the form of space–time domain through antenna array and multipath fading expression. Novel suitable neural network technique is proposed as an effective signal processing method for the receiver of such an uplink multiuser CDMA system. By the appropriate choice of the channel state information for the neural network parameters, the neural network can collectively resolve the effects of both the inter-symbol interference due to the multipath fading channel and the multiple access interference in the receiver of the uplink multiuser CDMA communication system. The dynamics of the proposed neural network receiver for the uplink multiuser CDMA communication system is also studied.

Numerical results indicate that the system performs better than that of the conventional DS-CDMA system and another MC-DS-CDMA system     

Error probability for block codes over channels with blockinterference

A methodology is presented to evaluate analytically the error probability for block codes over block interference channels. The proposed analysis is based on the knowledge of the moments of the bit-error probability over the interference, thus allowing, for instance, fast performance evaluation of block-coded slow frequency hopping (SFH) systems with antenna diversity over fading channels. As an example of application, slow frequency hopping multiple access (SFHMA) systems with nonideal interleaving are analyzed in the presence of fading, cochannel interference, and additive Gaussian noise     

Performance of multicarrier CDMA with DPSK modulation anddifferential detection in fading multipath channels

Multicarrier (MC) direct sequence (DS) code division multiple access (CDMA) with differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) modulation and differential detection is proposed. Transmitted data bits are differentially encoded after serial-to-parallel conversion to a number of parallel streams. On each branch, encoded bits are direct sequence spread spectrum (SS) modulated and transmitted using different carriers. The system is analyzed with a differential detector in static Rayleigh fading multipath channel, in fast Rayleigh fading multipath channel and for variable overlapping between carrier spectra in static fading channel. Closed-form expressions are derived for the error probability and evaluated for many cases. The performance is compared to that of a system using phase-shift keying (PSK) with conventional matched filter (CMF) coherent receiver. For static fading channel, the error probability performance of the differential detector is close to that of CMF receiver. For fast fading, the performance degrades slightly with increasing fading rate. Finally; successive carriers of the system are allowed to overlap with various overlapping percentages. The condition of a single path can be achieved by increasing both the number of carriers and the separation between successive carriers. Also, for each number of carriers, there exists an optimum overlapping percentage at which the system performance is optimized. The performance of the proposed DPSK with differential detection system is close to that of PSK with CMF receiver, but the former is simpler to implement

A new nonlinear adaptive minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receiver performing a successful cancellation of multiple access interference in multipath fading channels is proposed. It is observed that the proposed receiver could achieve a significant performance gain over any currently used adaptive MMSE receivers, at the cost of a relatively small increase in complexity and modification of the conventional DS/CDMA system
