A decorrelating detector is a suboptimal multiuser detector that has attracted much attention due to its inherent merits (Zvonar, Z. and Brady, D., 1995). The decorrelating detector provides substantial performance gains over the conventional detector under various conditions. The multicarrier DS/CDMA system is regarded as a viable alternative to the classical single carrier DS/CDMA system in that an available bandwidth is decomposed into a set of subbands. In each subband, the fading has non-selectivity. That is, path diversity is converted to frequency diversity. A new multiuser detector combining decorrelating detector and multicarrier schemes is proposed and analyzed in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel. From numerical results, it is shown that the proposed detector achieves better BER performance and lower computational complexity than the conventional decorrelating detector. It is also shown that the proposed detector is robust to partial narrowband interference.","PeriodicalId":6305,"journal":{"name":"2003 IEEE Topical Conference on Wireless Communication Technology","volume":"32 1","pages":"105-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79031517","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 a code division multiple access (CDMA) system, multiple access interference (MAI) coupled with the near-far problem is one of the major factors limiting system performance. To overcome these issues, various multiuser detection schemes have been proposed. The complexity of the multiuser detection schemes is important, especially when they are adopted in a multicarrier DS/CDMA system which employs lots of subcarriers. Successive interference cancellation (SIC) is relatively simpler than other multiuser detection schemes when used in a multicarrier CDMA system because it does not require separate channel estimation for each of the subcarriers. A SIC scheme based on order statistics is proposed and analyzed for a multicarrier CDMA system over a Rayleigh fading channel. The SIC scheme is employed for each subcarrier, and the subcarrier signals, after interference cancellation, are combined through maximal-ratio or equal-gain combining techniques. The effect of imperfect interference cancellation is also investigated. From the numerical results, it is shown that the proposed system achieves significant performance improvement over a conventional multicarrier CDMA system. The proposed system is robust to MAI and the near-far problem, which translates to a significant increase in system capacity.","PeriodicalId":6305,"journal":{"name":"2003 IEEE Topical Conference on Wireless Communication Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"103-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75198903","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 algorithm carries out the updating for chip duration instead of the bit duration, and performs the adaptation for the different paths at the same time. The latter operation allows us to reduce the processing time by L, where L is the number of paths. When the channel is subject to rapid variations or under high mobility, the angles of arrival change significantly over some symbol intervals. To overcome these problems, the variable step size of the VOO algorithm, which follows power gradient variation, allows the tracking of such an adverse environment, while simultaneously tracking the maximum power.","PeriodicalId":6305,"journal":{"name":"2003 IEEE Topical Conference on Wireless Communication Technology","volume":"11 1","pages":"406-407"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75594341","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 current crowding of the spectrum leads to the investigation of more efficient uses of allocated bandwidth. Quadrature-vestigial-sideband (QVSB) is a bandwidth-efficient modulation scheme that doubles the data capacity of conventional VSB. By superimposing two VSB-modulated, independent data streams, QVSB can achieve data rates equivalent to conventional, Nyquist-filtered, double-sideband (DSB) schemes, using half the bandwidth. Efficient, high-rate, turbo-product-codes (TPCs) are used in conjunction with QVSB modulation, to achieve a system which is both power and bandwidth efficient. In particular, capacity performance is about 4 to 5.5 dB from the Shannon bound, up to approximately 5 bits/s/Hz, the highest capacity simulated thus far.","PeriodicalId":6305,"journal":{"name":"2003 IEEE Topical Conference on Wireless Communication Technology","volume":"127 6 1","pages":"113-116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87761029","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}

That is, given the received signal at a point in space, reconstruct the source signal. Naturally this can be accomplished by a number of methods given the field distribution over a cross section of a region in space, but here we only wish to consider the possibility of being provided with the material conditions of the space between the source and receiver and the actual signal received at a point in space.
