Orthogonal transmit diersity (OTD) is one of the standardized techniques in 3G systems. In this paper, we apply orthogonal transmit diversity technique to multicarrier CDMA systems. Andlysis and simulation results show that performance benefits can be achieved compared with conventioal MC-CDMA systems in multipath fading channels.展开更多

It can effectively utilize wireless bandwidth. Some strategies can he used by demand assignment MAC protocols to further improve their efficiency. The concept of transmit probability is introduced. This concept allows a request slot to be assigned to many different traffic classes at the same time. Based on it, the dynamic random channel reservation (DRCR) protocol is proposed. The DRCR protocol operates dynamically by observing the traffic conditions. It uses information about the recent traffic conditions to assign transmit probability with which an mobile station can select request slots with lower traffic. The performance of DRCR is evaluated and compared with RSCA. The results show that DRCR is more stable than RSCA, it offers shorter delays of requests than RSCA and can relieve heavily stressed traffic classes faster than RSCA.展开更多

In the TSST-OFDM scheme, it is equipped with four transmit antennas, but only double of them are used for coding in every time slot. It is shown that the signal to inter-antenna interference ratio is a function of Doppler frequency in time-varying channels for a given space-time code. The analyses and simulations results validate that the proposed scheme not only gets time- switched diversity and lower decoding complexity, but also suffers less time-varying impairments. Hence, it ex- hibits better performance than quasi-orthogonal space-time coded scheme.展开更多
