Abstract

In this paper, the DS(direct sequence)-CDMA and MC(multi-carrier)-CDMA, which are being researched recently as a synchronous IMT-2000 scheme for next-generation mobile multimedia communications, are studied in terms of BER(bit error rate) performance. The BER performance of MC-CDMA with EGB, MRC, and improved MMSEC detection scheme are analyzed and compared to that of conventional DS-CDMA adopting RAKE receiver through the computer simulations under the environments of synchronous IMT-2000 transmission channel. Not only single user case but also multiuser case is considered in the given system. As a result, it is shown that MC-CDMA with MMSEC detection outperforms all other schemes improved the $E_b/N_o$ by about 5 [dB] and 6 [dB] when the BER is $2{\times}10^{-3}$, for the indoor/outdoor fading channel and synchronous IMT-2000 transmission channel, respectively. Also in the multiuser case, MC-CDMA with MMSEC detection scheme exhibits better performance than all the other schemes.

본 논문에서는 북미식 차세대 이동통신 방식인 동기식 IMT-2000을 위한 실내 및 실외 전송환경하에서 DS-CDMA 및 MC-CDMA의 오율특성을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 고찰하였다. 즉 RAKE 수신기를 채택한 DS-CDMA 방식과 EGC(equal gain combining), MRC(maximum ratio combining) 및 개선된 MMSEC(minimum mean square error combining) 방식에 대해 단일 및 다중 사용자와 부 반송파의 수에 따른 비트 오율특성을 분석 하였다. 그 결과 MMSEC 방식이 다른 방식에 비해 페이딩 채널에서 오율이 $2{\times}10^{-3}$ 일 때 약 5 [dB], 동기식 IMT-2000을 위한 실내 및 실외 전송채널의 경우에는 약 6[dB] 개선됨을 보였다. 또한 다중 사용자의 수가 증가함에 따라 MMSEC를 적용한 MC-CDMA 방식이 가장 우수함을 확인하였다.
