The deterioration of the radio channels due to fading and interference increases the actual traffic that a system has to cope with.

By this means the quality of a nondeterministic channel, such as those of mobile communications, is taken into account. The result can be used for network design in cellular mobile communications.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127361265","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 well known mobile radio standard GSM has almost reached its limits, because it is mainly designed for voice services and a small number of fixed data services.

The management of the complex multiple access scheme is done by protocols. In this paper, the demands on protocols for future mobile radio systems considering especially CDMA are shown.

Unfortunately, the Gaussian (wide sense) stationary uncorrelated scattering (GWSSUS) simulation concept which is most wide-spread adopted in fading simulators neglects any directional anisotropy of the propagation mechanism. In this paper a directional channel simulation model is introduced which is an extension to GWSSUS. Due to its relatively low structural complexity, this directional Gaussian scattering (DGS) concept is applicable not only to soft- but also to hardware fading simulators. The most important advantage of the DGS simulator is that it can easily be configured to match the properties of real-world propagation scenarios. This is achieved based on the information available from echo estimation, a method which recently was introduced for configuring statistical GWSSUS channel models directly from the results of wide-band channel sounding.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126753186","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}

In general, a multi-dimensional MLSE, e.g., a Viterbi-algorithm is unfeasible for severe ICI, ISI and a large number of users. Applying a perfect decorrelating (noise whitening) matrix filter, the triangular structure of the resulting channel matrix allows a simplified ICI cancelling detector. More practically, an ICI cancelling structure without the necessity of a decorrelating matrix is presented. It comprises user-individual one-dimensional ISI-MLSEs where ICI is cancelled out by reliable tentative symbols of neighboring detectors. To overcome the problem of non-reliable tentative decisions of the ISI-MLSEs, they are delivered by an ICI sequence estimator with implemented ISI cancellation. Applying filters for minimum phase impulse responses, sequential decoding algorithms like the M-algorithm are suitable for a reduced complexity joint detection receivers.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122735445","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 performance assessment shows that the newly proposed receiver largely outperforms the decorrelating detector in the presence of narrowband interference, while suffering a negligible loss as no interferer is active.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121891152","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}

If shift frequencies using non-integers (NIFSK) could be used, the frequency utilization efficiency would improve due to the capability of multi-ary transmission. However, since a framed sequence consisting of NIFSK includes abrupt transients, the waveform suffers from considerable distortion when it is transmitted via a bandlimited path. To solve this problem, we propose sampling function waveform modulation system (SAFWM). SAFWM uses a modified sampling function waveform that is immune to intersymbol interference generated in the process of conveying each sampled value of an FSK signal. The transmission bandwidth is only slightly larger than that of zero to the maximum shift frequency. At the receiver, the sampled values are restored by correlation detection with the same waveforms, and are transformed into the original FSK. To accurately restore a waveform of transmitted NIFSK signals, frame extension is introduced. Distortionless transmission performed with this method is confirmed by computer simulation. This principle can be applied not only for FSK/PSK but also for FSK-SS (spread spectrum) and FH-SS, resulting in improving their frequency utilization efficiencies.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129789764","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}

Wideband random frequency hopping (FH) in digital F/TDMA systems like GSM and its derivatives is a method of expanding the bandwidth used by a traffic channel, thereby creating frequency and interference diversity effects. In this paper the diversity effects of random FH are analysed by means of combined link and system level simulations of the GSM full rate speech channel embedded in different network simulation environments in different network configurations. The results indicate that even without power control the use of random FH with discontinuous transmission (DTX) provides both spectral capacity enhancement and improved quality for slow-moving mobiles in particular. We show that with a total of 24 frequencies available for traffic a fractionally loaded 1/3 reuse scheme yields a spectral capacity increase of 84% compared with a non-hopping 4/12 reuse scheme at the same speech quality level.","PeriodicalId":178152,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ISSSTA'95 International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129792382","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}
