Carrier Interferometry code for MC-CDMA (CI/MC-CDMA) provides better BER performance, less peak to average power ratio (PAPR) and higher design flexibility than conventional MC-CDMA systems employing Hadarmard-Walsh spreading code. However, like all the multi-carrier transmission technologies such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), the inter-carrier interference (ICI) produced by the frequency offset between the transmitter and receiver local oscillators or by Doppler frequency shift due to high mobility causes significant bit error rate (BER) performance degradation in CI/MC-CDMA system. In this paper, we apply the ICI self-cancellation scheme previously proposed for OFDM system to orthogonal CI/MC-CDMA system to reduce ICI effect and improve BER performance. Unlike the traditional ICI self-cancellation scheme for OFDM which reduces the ICI at the price of lowing the transmission rate and reducing the bandwidth efficiency, we introduce a second set of orthogonal CI codes to maintain the throughput. Simulations of different leveled modulations over AWGN channel and multi-path fading channel confirmed the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed self-embedded ICI cancellation scheme for CI/MC-CDMA system where significant BER performance gain has been observed when ICI is present.","PeriodicalId":102625,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference (WDD)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128125676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current methods for localization include triangulation through amplitude and time of arrival measurements. These methods require optimization over a continuous searchable surface to determine the optimal transmitter location estimate, leading to large computational complexity. This paper demonstrates a method that reduces this continuous space to a discrete set of points through the use of phase information. By employing the phase information and discrete domain search, the optimization process for localization significantly reduces required computational complexity. Additionally, parallel processing is exploited to further reduce the computation time. Simulations are conducted to compare the performances and complexities of traditional methods and the proposed discrete domain processing method incorporating phase information. Limitations of this technique and areas for future work are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":102625,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference (WDD)","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134069109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We observe that the target and interference spectra are inherently sparse in the spatio-temporal domain, and hence we exploit that sparsity to develop an efficient STAP technique. In addition, the use of an OFDM signal increases the frequency diversity of our system, as different scattering centers of a target resonate at different frequencies, and thus improves the target detectability. First, we formulate a realistic sparse-measurement model for an OFDM radar considering both the clutter and jammer as the interfering sources. Then, we show that the optimal STAP-filter weight-vector is equal to the generalized eigenvector corresponding to the minimum generalized eigenvalue of the interference and target covariance matrices. To estimate the target and interference covariance matrices, we apply a residual sparse-recovery technique that enables us to incorporate the partially known support of the sparse vector. Our numerical results demonstrate that the sparsity-based STAP algorithm, with considerably lesser number of secondary data, produces an equivalent performance as the other existing STAP techniques.","PeriodicalId":102625,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference (WDD)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129994400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach approximates the harmonic transfer characteristics of a nonlinear system and, as a consequence, is expected to be very useful in both waveform design and circuit optimization. While this approach is useful, there are limitations of this approximation based on the strength of the nonlinearity, the size of the perturbation imposed on the large-signal operating condition, and the number of harmonics used to approximate the signal. This paper examines some sample TIPP nonlinearities and show that the affine approximation accuracy often degrades for increasing perturbation size and when a reduced number of harmonics is used to approximate system results for waveforms containing significant harmonic content.","PeriodicalId":102625,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference (WDD)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133734760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically a receiver consists of an analog front-end followed by a digitizer. Note that improvement of analog circuits has proven difficult, and the overall receiver performance is usually limited by the analog front-end. Therefore, achieving low-distortion reception is highly desired, especially for wideband receivers. Among all performance degradation contributors, phase noise and jitter are especially troublesome since they cause random errors which are difficult to compensate. Each individual RF device contributes to phase noise, while the analog to digital converter (ADC) tends to effect time jitter. To quantify the system performance, it is desired to know the accumulated effect of individual phase noise sources and jitter. Under linear channel assumption, the total effect of all phase noise and jitter contributions along a channel can be represented by an accumulated phase noise at the ADC's output, called total phase noise. This paper focuses on measuring and modeling the total phase noise relying on unique optimization approaches. In contrast to traditional phase noise measurement that typically relies on hardware, a digital approach is proposed and developed. In particular, a measurement-based phase noise model is created. A modified spectrum fitting technique based on optimization is proposed and examined. It is confirmed that the total phase noise satisfies wide sense stationary (WSS) Gaussian process model.","PeriodicalId":102625,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference (WDD)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127649663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
