DS-CDMA system has very low bandwidth efficiency, hence it is difficult to maintain high spreading gain for high speed data transmission. Offset stacked spreading CDMA(OSS-CDMA) is a transmission scheme where spreading codes with chip offsets are overlapped, then transmitted. This kind of system requires a code set that guarantees orthogonality between codes in the set of any cjip offset. An orthogonal complementary code set has a property that the crosscorrelation function between codes in the group is zero for all shifts, hence it can be used for an OSS-CDMA system. In an OCC-OSS CDMA system each user is assigned an orthogonal complementary code group. User data bit is spread by the given codes and overlapped, and the code sequences are transmitted with multicarrier. However, the offset stacked spread sequences are multilevel, and the number of symbol levels is increases as the spreading efficiency is increased. When the OSS sequence is transmitted with MPSK mapping, the signal constellation becomes dense, and the system is easily affected by channel impairments. In this paper, we propose a level clipping scheme on OSS sequence before MPSK modulated. Simulations have been carried out to investigate the BER performance of the OCC-OSS CDMA system in AWGN environment. The results show that proposed scheme outperform the scheme without level clipping.

터보부호 심벌비트들을 서로 다른 부호율로 반복부호화한 뒤 여러 부채널로 나란히 보내는 터보 부호화 여러반송파 직접수열 부호분할 다중접속 시스템을 제안한다. 레일리 감쇄채널에서 신호대잡음비가 높을 때에는 이 시스템의 성능 한계를 얻었고, 신호대잡음비가 낮아 한계를 적용할 수 없을 때에는 모의실험에서 성능을 살펴보았다. 신호대잡음비가 낮을 때 성능 손실이 조금 있지만 홀짝 검사(parity check) 심벌에 다양성 차수를 크게 주어 오류 마루를 (error floor) 낮출 수 있음을 보였다.
