A Novel Multiuser SISO-BOFDM Systems with Group Fractional Fourier Transforms Scheme

Existing multiuser (MU) schemes are mainly accomplished by MIMO techniques. In this letter, we propose a novel group fractional Fourier transform based MU SISO Biorthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing system, in which multiple independent data streams from co-channel mobile stations (MSs) can be transmitted in the same frequency and time slot. Because the chirp bases generated by different orders based fractional Fourier transform (FrFTs), at same subchannel, are mutually approximately orthogonal, when FrFT orders are effectively allocated to different co-channel MSs, the co-channel interference can be perfectly suppressed by simple correlative detection in FrFT domain with respective optimal order, at the receiver of each MS. Finally, system simulations show the essential advantages over conventional MU schemes.
