We demonstrate that different choice of mapping leads to different error floor and waterfall performance. One mapping may have the lowest error floor but result in poor waterfall performance, while another mapping may achieve the opposite. We then present the time-varying mixed mapping scheme for PCTCM systems. The proposed mixed mapping scheme enables us to generate a set of turbo trellis codes from two choices of coded-bits-to-signal mapping with various waterfall performance and error floor.","PeriodicalId":129008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 54th Vehicular Technology Conference.

In general, canceller systems suffer from errors in the initial decision and those errors cause performance degradation. We use turbo decoding in the initial decision in order to remove the errors. Moreover, we aim to improve the performance by feedback of the signal after cancellation. The proposed system has two types of feedback: iteration of the turbo decoder and feedback after cancellation. We evaluate the BER performance of the proposed system and the optimal number of both iterations and feedback. As a result of the computer simulation, the BER performance of the proposed system greatly improved and was superior to the conventional cancellation system.","PeriodicalId":129008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 54th Vehicular Technology Conference.

In this paper, we first define an index for measuring the flexibility of an assignable code set. Based on this flexibility index, a single-code assignment scheme, namely nonrearrangeable compact assignment (NCA), is proposed for accommodating multi-rate traffic. NCA can offer maximal flexibility to the resulting assignable code set after each code assignment. As a result, it gives better blocking, throughput and fairness performance when compared to random assignment (RA) scheme.","PeriodicalId":129008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 54th Vehicular Technology Conference.

The main purpose of MR ARQ is to get efficient use of radio resources at receiver by reducing number of acknowledgements. We analyze MR ARQ and compare its performance with selective repeat (SR) ARQ in the wireless fading channel environment. Based on mathematical analysis and simulation, it is shown that we need to increase the size of buffer for MR ARQ to hold data packets for the period of acknowledgement, and need to increase the size of buffer much more for MR ARQ in the noisier channel environment. It is shown that as the length of period for acknowledgement is increased, we need to increase the size of buffer much more for the saturated throughput. Increasing the size of buffer is needed for the efficient use of radio resources by reducing the number of acknowledgements. Also, the increased delay is another tradeoff.","PeriodicalId":129008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 54th Vehicular Technology Conference. VTC Fall 2001. Proceedings (Cat.

The user profile leads to discussion of the asymmetric nature of the subscriber, which has direct implications on how the network links are designed in order to provide balanced spectrum distribution between downlink and uplink.

This can reduce co-channel interference, mitigate the fading phenomenon caused by the multipath transmission, increase the system capacity and improve the communication quality. The purpose of this paper is to study the performance of the smart antenna DOA based beamforming algorithm applied to a wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) system. The simulation results show that a W-CDMA system with smart antenna, compared with that with an omnidirectional antenna, can have a lower bit error rate at the specific signal to noise ratio (SNR), allow more users to access the system at the specific bit error rate and increase the system capacity.","PeriodicalId":129008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 54th Vehicular Technology Conference.
