The technological progress in multi-carrier (MC) modulation ledorthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to become animportant part of beyond 3G cellular mobile communicationstandards, including LTE and WiMAX. In addition, the flexibilityoffered by the spread spectrum (SS) and time division multiplexing(TDM) techniques motivated many researchers to investigate severalMC combined multiple access schemes, such as MC-CDMA, OFDMA andMC-TDMA. These schemes benefit from the advantages of eachsub-system and offer high flexibility, high spectral efficiency,simple detection strategies and narrow-band interference rejectioncapability.
Multi-Carrier and Spread Spectrum Systems is one of thefirst books to describe and analyze the basic concepts ofmulti-carrier OFDM transmission and its combination with spreadspectrum (MC-CDMA). The different architectures and detectionstrategies as well as baseband-related transceiver components areexplained. This includes topics like FEC channel coding anddecoding, modulation and demodulation (IFFT/FFT), digitalI/Q-generation, time and frequency synchronisation, channelestimation, frequency domain equalization and RF aspects such asphase noise and non-linearity issues. Concrete examples of itsapplications for cellular mobile communication systems (B3G/4G) aregiven. Further derivatives of MC-SS (such as OFDMA, SS-MC-MA andDFT-spread OFDM) and their corresponding applications in the LTE,WiMAX, WLAN and DVB-RCT standards are detailed. Capacity andflexibility enhancements of multi-carrier OFDM systems by differentMIMO diversity techniques such as space time/frequency coding (STC,SFC) and software defined radio concepts are also described.
Written in a highly accessible manner this book provides aunique reference on the topics of multi-carrier and spread spectrumcommunications, assisting 4G engineers with theirimplementation.
