We previously proposed an Orthogonal Code Hopping Multiplexing (OCHM) scheme for statistical multiplexing on a synchronous downlink. OCHM enables a large number of users to share a limited number of code channels through statistical multiplexing. We here improve the performance of OCHM by prioritizing encoded symbols according to their importance using both the conventional code division and the previously proposed code hopping multiplexing schemes. Prioritization is useful for channel coding schemes with different levels of importance for encoded symbols such as turbo-codes. Scheme performance is evaluated by simulation in terms of the required Eb/N0 for a 1% block error rate.

A collision dispersion scheme based on orthogonal pre-spreading is proposed to reduce the effect of collisions that occur in orthogonal code hopping multiplexing(OCHM). The OCHM scheme was previously proposed to accommodate a significantly larger number of low-activity bursty channels than the number of orthogonal codewords. The proposed scheme greatly reduces the required SNR in channel decoding. In addition, the proposed scheme can be applied to OFHM based on OFDM.

An orthogonal code hopping multiplexing (OCHM) technique has been proposed for accommodating a large number of users with low channel activities than the number of orthogonal codewords through statistical multiplexing in downlink cellular systems. In this paper, a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna based OCHM system is proposed to improve the performance. Each modulated symbol is repeated N times and the N repeated symbols are transmitted simultaneously using N transmit antennas. Through repetitions, the effect of perforations that the OCHM system experiences is decentralized among the repeated symbols and the full perforation probability is significantly reduced. Each receiver detect the transmitted signal using its pre-assigned code hopping pattern. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme saves the required energy for a given frame error rate (FER).

In this paper, we show that performance can be improved by using multiple antennas in the conventional orthogonal code hopping multiplexing (OCHM) scheme, which was proposed for accommodating a larger number of users with low channel activities than the number of orthogonal codewords used in code division multiple access (CDMA)-based communication systems through downlink statistical multiplexing. First, we introduce two different types of OCHM systems together with orthogonal codeword allocation strategies, and then derive their mathematical expression for log-likelihood ratio (LLR) values according to the two different schemes. Next, when a turbo encoder based on the LLR computation is used, we evaluate performance on the frame error rate (FER) for the aformentioned OCHM system. For comparison, we also show performance for the existing symbol mapping method using multiple antennas, which was used in 3GPP standards. As a result, it is shown that our OCHM system with multiple antennas based on the proposed orthogonal codeword allocation strategy leads to performance gain over the conventional system---energy required to satisfy a target FER is significantly reduced.

Mobile communication systems are required not only to support high-data-rate transmissions in favorable channel conditions but also to be able to tolerate hostile environments possibly encountered by cellular communications. This paper compares CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access), OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), and MC-CDMA(Multi-Carrier CDMA)with inaccurate channel estimates and low SNR environments. The equations and simulation results show that the performance losses in CDMA systems due to imprecise channel estimates are not considerable while frequency-hopping of OFDM systems can result in more than l0dB SNR losses. Also, this paper show that frequency-spreading of MC-CDMA can be very helpful for channel compensation performances than frequency-hopping or time-spreading of OFDM.

A hybrid multicarrier CDMA/FDM system with a truncated adaptive transmission scheme is analyzed in forward link based on the feedback information from the mobile station. In the single cell environment, the prop(mea scheme outperforms the adaptive FH/DS system as well as the MC DS/CDMA system when orthogonal signature sequences are used. In the multiple cell environment also, the proposed scheme has better performance characteristics than the adaptive FH/DS system when orthogonal and random codes are used as spreading sequences.

In this paper, we analyzed the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing/ frequency hopping multiple access(OFDM/FHMA) hybrid system that in impulsive interference and broadband wireless communication channel then we applied the turbo code scheme to make satisfied in data and voice transmission service. Also, we compared the bit error rate(BER) performance of turbo coded diversity scheme in the OFDM/FHMA hybrid system. As a result of simulation, proposed OFDM/FHMA hybrid system shows the enhancement of 10 times compared to the general OFDM/FHMA system.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance of MB-OFDM UWB system when the interference signal that can be WIMAX signal or 4 G system signal is received by detection limit of -80 dBm/MHz proposed in Korea for DAA(Detect And Avoid) to permit UWB in $3.1{\sim}4.8$ GHz. MB-OFDM UWB system supports two transmission modes; one is TFI(Time frequency Interleaving) mode that transmits OFDM symbols using different carrier frequency from symbol to symbol according to Time Frequency(TF) codes, the other is FFI(Fixed Frequency Interleaving) mode that transmits OFDM symbols using a specific carrier frequency. In this paper, we considered the TX average power and the synchronization structure to reflect the effect of frequency hopping according to TFC. Interference analysis results show that the WiMAX system is fenced thoroughly from UWB interference in domestic DAA regulation, but the performance of MB-OFDM UWB system is degraded seriously by an interference signal with the DAA detection limit even in frequency Hopping mode that can get frequency diversity effect.
