It is necessary to devise the method for increasing bandwidth efficiency in order to provide the high speed mobile multi-media communication services with CDMA under the limited radio bandwidth resources. In this paper the structure for transmitting the high speed data at the half bandwidth of the required bandwidth using the symmetry property of the IFFT output of the binary input MC-CDMA, which enables the time scaling method utilized, is proposed. The processing gain is increased 4 times than the DS-CDMA and its performance is evaluated as better than DS-CDMA with rake receivers under the Rayleigh fading channel and same bandwidth per one channel.

In this paper, the hybrid SC/MRC technique was applied to the MC/DS-CDMA system in the Nakagami-m multi-path fading environment. The applied scheme was compared with other cases when the MRC technique was applied and then performances were analyzed. The result of analysis showed that the performance of the applied system, whose number of branches (L) for the input diversity of each carrier wave was 3 and かme selected number of branches ( Lc) was 2, was better than that of the MRC technique when the Lc of the MRC technique was 2. The performance of the applied system was lower than that of the MRC technique, then the Lc of the MRC technique was 3. However, as the fading index was lowered, which means the telecommunication environment deteriorated, the performance of the hybrid SC/MRC-(2/3) diversity technique when Lc of MRC technique was 3, was almost the same as that of the MRC technique. The hybrid SC/MRC-(2/3) diversity technique shows a similar performance to that of the MRC technique, when the Lc of the MRC technique was 4. Therefore, it was confirmed that the MC/DS-CDMA system could reduce complexity and achieve similar performance to that of the MRC by applying the hybrid SC/MRC technique, which utilized the advantages of the SC technique and high performance of the MRC scheme, rather than the MRC diversity technique that requires bit synchronization, frequency of fading, and phase synchronization for every diversity branch.

We consider an improved multicarrier(MC) CDMA system that combines both DS-CDMA with a concatenated orthogonal/PN spreading sequence and MC modulation. This system incorporates the advantages of DS-CDMA with a concatenated sequence to achieve large user capacity and MC modulation technique to combat the effects of a multipath fading channel and intersymbol interference(ISI). Considering voice activity and imperfect sectorization, the system performance is analysed for the maximal ratio combiner(MRC) under a multicell, multiuser, and multipath Rayleigh/Rician fading channels. The performance of the system is improved much more for the single path fading channel compared to the multipath fading channel. Also the system is shown to have the more improved average bit error rate(BER) over the orthogonal MC-CDMA with the conventional PN sequence.

In this paper, we choice multicarrier direct-sequence code division multiple access using bandwidth effectively in communication system. Because this system is based on DS-CDMA the same problem is raised. That is, the degradation of the performance is due to multiple access interference. To solve this problem, we proposed the blind adaptive receiver for MC DS-CDMA system. Simulation results show that the proposed blind receiver has more about 0.5(dB) value of SNR than conventional receiver.

In MC-CDMA systems effects of delay spread of the channel are reduced with increased symbol duration by simultaneously transmitting data symbols on the parallel subcarriers. However, the increased symbol duration causes the system to be more vulnerable to time selective fading. In this paper, we investigate the effects of time selective fading characteristics of the mobile channel from the viewpoint of desired signal power to inter-carrier interference power ratio at the combiner output of the MC-CDMA receiver.

This paper reports a cognitive radio network architecture based on overloaded multicarrier direct sequence code division multiple access (O-MC-DS-CDMA). The O-MC-DSCDMA technique combines CDMA with a multicarrier modulation technique to overcome the channel fading effects. In this technique, secondary users are enabled to share the available bandwidth with the existing primary users. Two sets of orthogonal Gold codes are used to support the primary and secondary users simultaneously. The orthogonality between the spreading codes is lost due to the non-zero cross correlation between the codes and the timing synchronization error in the uplink transmission, which causes interference between primary and secondary users. This paper proposes two modified hybrid parallel/successive interference cancellation techniques for primary and secondary user base station receivers with multiple antennas to suppress the interference among users. Interference among the same group of users is cancelled by parallel interference cancellation and the interference among groups is cancelled using successive interference cancellation. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed modified interference cancellation techniques show better BER performance over conventional interference cancellation techniques.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive Beamforming Algorithm, called MC-LMS, for adaptive antenna applied to an MC-CDMA system. New method for updating the weight vector based on the MSE criterion is derived. Computer simulations show that MC-LMS algorithm is capable of rejecting co-channel interference that affects the MC-CDMA system. Thus, the BER performance of the MC-CDMA system is much higher than that of the MC-CDMA system without using adaptive antenna and that of the DS-CDMA system with adaptive antenna in multi-path Rayleigh fading channel.

차세대 이동통신 시스템을 위해 활발히 연구되고 있는 MC-CDMA 방식은 OFDM과 DS-CDMA의 장점을 결합하여 심벌간 간섭과 페이딩에 강하고 IFFT/FFT를 이용하여 효과적으로 변조/복조부를 구현할 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다. 하지만, 송신 신호가 다중 레벨 진폭 특성을 갖기 때문에 손신기에서 사용되는 고출력 증폭기의 포화 특성으로 인해 심각한 비선형 왜곡이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 OFDM에서 이러한 비선형 왜곡의 보상을 위해 우리가 제안한 고정점 반복 기반의 사전왜곡기를 MC-CDMA 시스템에 적용하고, 이의 우수한 성능을 부가성 백색 가우시안 잡음 채널에서 64-FFT/IFFT을 이용하여 변조 및 복조를 수행하는 MC-CDMA 시스템에 대한 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.

In this paper, an adaptive beamforming algorithm, based on the Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE) criterion, is devised fer adaptive antenna applied to an MC-CDMA system. A new method for updating the weight vector is derived. Computer simulations show that proposed algorithm is capable of rejecting co-channel interference that affects the MC-CDMA system. Thus, the BER performance of the MC-CDMA system is improved compared with that of the MC-CDMA system without using adaptive antenna and that of the DS-CDMA system with adaptive antenna in multi-path Ricean fading channel.
