SUCCESSIVE BEAMFORMING, MULTIUSER DETECTION AND DIVERSITY RECEPTION FOR MULTICARRIER DS-CDMA SYSTEM WITH ANTENNA ARRAY

Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) systems are interference limited,and therefore efficient interference management is necessary to enhance the performance of a CDMA system.In this paper,a successive beamforming (spatial filtering),linear decorrelating MultiUser Detection (MUD, temporal filtering) and diversity reception structure for uplink multicarrier Direct Sequence CDMA (DS-CDMA) system with antenna array are proposed.By beamforming,the antenna array suppresses interference according to the distinct array signature.Subsequently,linear decorrelating MUD is ap- plied to separate the signals of different users and eliminate Multiple Access Interference (MAI).Finally, the decorrelated signals at different subcarriers that belong to the same user are combined to achieve frequency diversity.Simulation results show that the proposed structure offers significant Bit Error Rate (BER) performance improvement by successively exploiting the space-time-frequency processing.     

正交多载波降噪差分混沌键控通信系统

为解决多载波差分混沌移位键控(MC-DCSK)系统传输速率低和误码性能差的缺点,该文提出一种正交多载波降噪差分混沌移位键控(QMC-NR-DCSK)系统。在发送端,预定义载波用于发送参考信号,剩余M-1个不同中心频率的载波及其经正交调制技术后得到的频率相同但相位正交的载波都用于传输信息信号,此外,通过进一步引入Hilbert变换,将系统的频带利用率和传输速率提升为MC-DCSK系统的4倍。在接收端引入滑动平均滤波器的降噪操作降低了噪声的方差,从而改善了系统误码性能。推导了QMC-NR-DCSK系统在加性高斯白噪声(AWGN)信道和多径瑞利衰落(RFC)信道下的比特误码率公式并进行了仿真。仿真结果和理论分析表明：QMC-NR-DCSK系统能有效提升传输速率、带宽效率和误码性能,为该系统应用于多载波无线通信提供理论参考。

多载波CDMA容量的研究

该文对多载波CDMA容量规划进行了详细的理论和数学分析,推导出多载波CDMA上下行链路的容量的表达式,利用拉格朗日乘数求极值的方法,分别得到多载波CDMA话音和数据业务上下行链路最大容量;同时得出一个非常重要的结论:只有当即基站最大发射功率平均分配给每个子载波时,多载波CDMA系统才能获得最大的容量。该文还对影响容量的因素进行了仿真,各业务的容量随平均路径损耗的增加急剧下降。由此揭示了容量和覆盖的内在关系:容量和覆盖是相互制约的一对矛盾,容量的增加就意味着覆盖的减小,反之亦然。无论上下行链路,当功率达到一定程度时,再通过增大功率来提高容量并不是行之有效的方法。最后,通过对GSM,WCDMA,多载波CDMA 3个系统容量的比较,得出多载波CDMA下行链路频谱效率为WCDMA频谱效率的1.7倍,GSM 的2.7倍;上行链路频谱效率为WCDMA频谱效率的2.1倍,GSM 的2.4倍的结论。

Bit-error-rate-minimizing channel shortening using post-FEQ diversity combining and a genetic algorithm

In cyclic prefixed wireless communication systems, the bit error rate (BER) is the primary design concern. However, most equalizers for these systems optimize proxy metrics that are easy to use but are suboptimal in terms of BER. In this work, a channel shortener and frequency domain equalizer (FEQ) are developed for cyclic prefixed systems, which directly attempt to minimize the BER. To do this, first we modify the FEQ structure of a single input multiple output (SIMO) system such that the diversity combining is after the FEQ (whereas usually it is before the FEQ); and extend adaptive equalization algorithms to the new structure. This greatly mitigates frequency nulls, improving the BER. Second, a Genetic Algorithm, which is an optimization method based on the principles of natural selection and genetics, is used to choose the channel shortener to directly minimize the BER. The new approaches lower the BER by 10² in simulations.     

Joint use of DFT filter banks and modulated transmultiplexers for multicarrier communications

In this paper, new procedures for performing multicarrier modulation (MCM) are presented, based on using IFFT/FFT embedded in a filter bank-based transmultiplexer system. The IFFT/FFT blocks, along with the use of cyclic prefix or zero-padding strategies, enable easy equalization of the transmission channel. Additionally, the transmultiplexer system provides improved spectral discrimination, which can increases the transceiver robustness against mainly narrow-band interferences. Moreover, one of the proposed procedures presents an IDFT as the final stage of the MCM transmitter, and a DFT as the first stage of the receiver. This front-end is similar to standardized systems, enabling its compatibility. As it is illustrated by means of several examples, given a signal to noise ratio and comparing the new procedures to DFT-based MCM adopted in several digital communications standards, the following attractive features can be found: (a) greater spectral separation in the information transmitted over each subcarrier and (b) the robustness of the systems in noisy environments, mainly when narrow-band interferences appear, can be increased, allowing a reduction in the bit error probability.
