Multi-Rate Access Schemes And Successive Interference Cancellation For Wireless Multimedia Mc-Cdma Communications, Mizhou Tan May 2004

Multi-Rate Access Schemes And Successive Interference Cancellation For Wireless Multimedia Mc-Cdma Communications, Mizhou Tan

Dissertations

To catch up with the fast changes of the information challenges, providing multimedia services has become a very important requirement for future wireless communications. A proper system, capable of supporting multi-rate transmissions as well as handling high quality of service (QoS) requirements in hostile wireless communication environments, should be sought. Multi-carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA), a combination of multi-carrier modulation (MCM) and direct-sequence CDMA (DS-CDMA), appears to be one of the most elegant solutions. In this dissertation, four multi-rate access schemes, termed uncoded fixed spreading length (UFSL), coded fixed spreading length (CFSL), multi-code fixed spreading length (MFSL) and variable spreading length (VSL), …
