Abstract

Multicarrier DS-CDMA is an effective approach to realize wideband CDMA system in a multipath fading channel. In this paper, we propose a convolutionally-coded overlapped multicarrier DS-CDMA system, and analyze the performance with subband overlapping variation to determine the overlapping percentage showing best performance. Given a total number of subcarriers M*R, we will show that the BER variation is highly dependent on the rolloff factor P of raised-cosine chip wave-shaping filter irrespective of convolutional encoding rate I/M and repetition coding rate 1/R. We also analyze the possibility of reduction in total MUI by considering both variation of a rolloff factor (0 ($\beta$ :1) and variation of subband overlapping factor (0 ( A :2), and show that the proposed system may outperform the multicarrier DS-CDMA system in [1, 12].

멀티캐리어 DS-CDMA는 다중경로 페이딩 채널에서 광대역 시스템의 구현에 효과적인 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 콘볼루션 코딩을 적용한 중복된 멀티캐리어 DS-CDMA 시스템을 제안하고, 중복율 변화에 대한 성능을 분석하여 정해진 서브밴드 캐리어 수에 따라 최적의 성능을 제공하는 중복율을 제시한다. 특히 전체 서브캐리어 수에 따라 최적의 성능을 제공하는 중복율을 제시한다. 특히 전체 서브캐리어 수 M*R 값이 같다면 콘볼루션 코딩율 1/M과 반복 코딩율 1/R 값에 관계없이 칩 성형필터의 rolloff인자 β값이 같으면 중복율 변화에 따른 BET의 변화 형태가 거의 동일함을 보인다. 그리고 서브밴드의 중복인자 (0<β≤2) 변화와 rolloff인자(0<β≤1)의 변화에 따른 MUI를 분석하여 기존의 멀티태리어 시스템과 성능을 비교하고, 제안한 시스템의 중복율 변화에 따른 성능 개서 정도를 보인다.
