The coding methods discussed are orthogonal convolutional coding and biorthogonal convolutional coding. For these codes, bit error rate (BER) bounds are determined in a white Gaussian noise channel environment. The performance of these schemes in a Rayleigh fading channel are discussed with simulation results. It is found that for the same code rate, biorthogonal convolutional coding gives a much better BER performance than the other scheme with slightly added complexity in the decoder.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE 3rd International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications (ISSSTA'94)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129980809","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}

Co-channel interference (CCI) in CDMA is the most dominant factor in the limitation of user capacity, while the capacities of FDMA and TDMA capacities are primarily bandwidth limited. From an information theoretical viewpoint, however, an optimum multi-user receiver for CDMA can be derived by utilizing CCI as redundant information distributed among multiple accessing users. In practical channels such as personal, indoor, mobile radio communication channels, more feasible receivers are required to combat the multipath fading that causes estimation errors of the channel characteristics due to time variance. An overview of several CCI cancellation schemes for sub-optimum but practical multi-user receivers for CDMA is provided by classifying them in the temporal domain, the spatial domain, or in both domains.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE 3rd International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications (ISSSTA'94)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133937998","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}

The idea behind the integrated filtering is that CCI can be more reliably estimated by exploiting coding. We investigate the BER performance of the proposed scheme by theoretical analysis.

Upper and lower bounds on the bit error probability for PPM-CDMA systems are derived under the above considerations. The effect of both background and thermal noise is neglected in the analysis. A comparison between the performance of the number- and coherent-state OOK/PPM-CDMA networks is also presented.

These properties are of interest in multiuser radar and sonar systems. Especially since Costas arrays are known to posses ideal auto-ambiguity functions. The theory of W-C arrays is reviewed. It is then proved that only pairs of W-C arrays can have at most two hits in their cross-ambiguity function (best possible case). The maximum number of hits in the cross-ambiguity functions of a family of W-C arrays is shown to be a function of the number of W-C arrays in the family. The upper bound on the number of hits in the cross-ambiguity functions for a family of W-C arrays is also derived. Specific examples of how reducing the number of W-C arrays improves the cross-ambiguity properties are given for various types of prime numbers.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE 3rd International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications (ISSSTA'94)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125061561","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}
