Optimization Of Orthogonal Polyphase Spreading Sequences For Wireless Data Applications, Beata J. Wysocki, Tadeusz A. Wysocki

Faculty of Informatics - Papers (Archive)

We propose a simple but efficient method for optimizing correlation properties of polyphase spreading sequences for asynchronous DS CDMA applications. The proposed method can be used to minimize the mean square value of aperiodic crosscorrelation or the mean square value of aperiodic autocorrelation, the maximum value of aperiodic crosscorrelation functions, merit factor or other properties of the sequence set. The important feature of the method is that when applied to orthogonal sequences, it modifies correlation properties of the sequence set, while it preserves their orthogonality for perfect synchronization.


Effect Of Exponential Averaging On The Variability Of A Red Queue, Archan Misra, Teunis Ott, John Baras Jun 2001

Effect Of Exponential Averaging On The Variability Of A Red Queue, Archan Misra, Teunis Ott, John Baras

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The paper analyzes how using a longer memory of the past queue occupancy in computing the average queue occupancy affects the stability and variability of a RED queue. Extensive simulation studies with both persistent and Web TCP sources are used to study the variance of the RED queue as a function of the memory of the averaging process. Our results show that there is very little performance improvement (and in fact, possibly significant performance degradation) if the length of memory is increased beyond a very small value. Contrary to current practice, our results show that a longer memory reduces the …
