In order to meet the demand of high data rate transmission with good quality maintained, the multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) technology is considered for the next generation wireless communication systems. However, their high crest factor (CF) is one of the major drawbacks of multi-carrier transmission systems. Thus, CF reduction is one of the most important research areas in MC-CDMA systems. In addition, asynchronous MC-CDMA suffers from the effect of multiple access interference (MAI), caused by all users active in the system. Degradation of the system’s bit error rate (BER) caused by MAI must be taken into consideration as well. The aim of this paper is to provide a comparative study on the enhancement of performance of an MC-CDMA system. The spreading sequences used in CDMA play an important role in CF and interference reduction. Hence, spreading sequences should be selected to simultaneously ensure low CF and low BER values. Therefore, the effect that correlation properties of sequences exert on CF values is investigated in this study. Furthermore, a numerical BER evaluation, as a function of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the number of users, is provided. The results obtained indicate that a trade-off between the two criteria is necessary to ensure good performance. It was concluded that zero correlation zone (ZCZ) sequences are the most suitable spreading sequences as far as the satisfaction of the above criteria is concerned.

Recently, there has been a good deal of interest in the use of chaotic signals for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) communication systems. The capacity of DS-CDMA systems is interference-limited, and can therefore be increased by techniques that suppress interference. This letter is devoted to the evaluation of the impact of blind multiuser detection techniques on chaos based DS-CDMA systems. Blind receivers can suppress multiple access interference and do not require knowledge of the code sequences and propagation channels of the interference. We demonstrate that, for chaotic sequence-based communications, blind multiuser receivers significantly improve the BER with respect to single-user receivers, and that their use is practically essential with a high number of users.

This paper presents a statistical analysis of multiple access interference (MAI) in Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access (DS-CDMA) communication systems based on different types of chaotic spreading sequences. The probability distribution of the interference in a system with K users causing the MAI is studied using MATLAB simulation. For chaotic spreading sequence generation six different 1-D chaotic maps are used: modified Bernoulli, modified Tent, Gauss, Sine-Circle, Cubic and Pinchers map. A brief statistical analysis of the cross-correlation properties of the chaotic sequences generated by the aforementioned maps is also presented.

In the basic processing of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems using chaotic code sequences, a pair of chaos generators in the transmitter and the receiver are used to generate the same sequence, in order to synchronize and retrieve the transmitted signals. In addition, a filter with a simple structure should be integrated into chaotic signals to achieve the maximum of the signal to noise ratio and mitigate the harmful effects of multipath. Another effective property of chaos signal is that a wireless multipath channel does not change the amount of contained information. Considering those issues, the present paper describes a practical system for synchronizing two chaotic generators used in a digital CDMA. Chaotic generators were used to spread the data and provide security against attack. Both receiver and transmitter were implemented using two separate Spartan 6 FPGA boards. Experimental results proved the robustness of the proposed method which could contribute towards the synchronization of chaotic signals in secure CDMA communication systems.

Abstract Optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) system provides highly secured transmission in addition to its capabilities to support asynchronous transmission and soft blocking. Two-dimensional OCDMA codes are chosen in this paper due to their high cardinality, good spectral efficiency and flexibility in their construction methods against direct sequence codes. This paper focuses on study of impact of multiple access interference (MAI) at high data rates for 2-D prime codesbased OCDMA system. It is shown that how the change in number of simultaneous users affects the transmission quality. Further, performance of the system is analysed in terms of bit error rate, received electrical power and eye openings. In addition, this paper also shows a comparative analysis of 2-D codes-based OCDMA system and wavelength division multiple access (WDMA) system in order to justify the improved performance of the proposed system. It is observed that the performance of 2-D OCDMA system is much better than WDMA system in terms of quality as well as security.

For suppressing multiple access interference (MAI) in a CDMA communication system, complementary sequence sets are employed as spreading sequences in such system. In this paper, we present a method for constructing a family of quaternary periodic complementary sequence sets, which arises from the conversion of the existing binary periodic complementary sequence sets with odd period of sub-sequences. The period of sub-sequences in the proposed sequence sets is twice as long as the one of the binary sequence sets employed, which is a drawback in the proposed method. Finally, some examples are given in order to illuminate the validity of the new method.

Supporting multi-rate transmission is an essential factor in current optical packet switching (OPS) networks. In this paper, the author studied a multi-rate scheme capable of forwarding packets with different signal rates based on label switching. The multiple-code (MC) technique was employed to label a packet by conveying its payload bits to multiple optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) labels. Spectral-amplitude-coding (SAC), which represents the chips in an OCDMA code as a set of wavelengths, was introduced to remove the multiple-access interference (MAI) from the overlapping among labels. The author tested the system effectiveness by conducting numerical analysis to formulate bit-error probability (BEP) and spectral efficiency (SE). The simulation results showed that the proposed network had a stable BEP performance when switching the packet flows of multiple data-rates.

Chaotic digital code-division multiple access ((CD)2MA) systems are new types of communication systems using chaotic carriers. (CD)2MA had found applications in both wireless and other communication systems. In this paper we study the error performance of chaotic digical code-division multiple access ((CD)2MA) systems used in both wireless environment and cable networks. We present first the details of the interleave mode of the (CD)2MA. When a (CD)2MA system works in the interleave mode, each of its transmitters only transmits signals during a portion of the bit duration of the message signal. The total interference level is thus reduced which in turn increases the channel capacity. The relationship between the bit error rate (BER) and the interleave rate is studied in both the synchronous (CD)2MA system used in cable systems, and the asynchronous (CD)2MA system used in wireless environments. Our simulation results show that in a cable system the synchronous (CD)2MA system can support 1.5 times more channel capacity than synchronous CDMA systems, and double the channel capacity of CDMA systems in wireless environments.

In the attempt to respond to market demands, new techniques for wireless communication systems have been proposed to ensure, to all active users that are sharing the same network cell, an increased quality of service, regardless of any environmental factors, such as their position within the cell, time, space, climate, and noise. One example is the nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique, proposed within the 5G standard, known for supporting a massive connectivity and a more efficient use of radio resources. This paper presents two new sets of complex codes— multiple-user shared-access (MUSA) and extended MUSA (EMUSA), and an algorithm of allocation such that the intercorrelation should be as reduced as possible that can be used in MUSA for 5G NOMA-based technique scheme. Also, it analyzes the possibility of creating complex codes starting from PN (cPN), which is a novel idea proposed in this paper, whose results are promising with respect to the overall system performances. First, a description of the basic principles of MUSA are presented; next, the description of the proposed system will be provided, whose performance will be tested using Monte Carlo MATLAB simulations based on bit error rate (BER) versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The system performances are evaluated in different scenarios and compared with classical code division multiple access (CDMA) having the following system parameters in sight: the number of antennas at the receiver side and the number of active users.

Visible light communication (VLC) is a promising technology for wireless communication networks. Optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) is a strong candidate for VLC-based applications. The predominant source of bit error in OCDMA is the multiple access interference (MAI). To eliminate MAI in synchronous OCDMA, zero cross correlation (ZCC) codes have been proposed. However, synchronization problems and multipath propagation introduce relative non-zero time delays. Therefore, the zero correlation zone (ZCZ) concept was introduced. In this paper, we propose a new method for generating ZCC codes. The proposed construction can accommodate any number of users with flexible Hamming weight. The numerical results obtained show that the proposed codes significantly reduce MAI, compared to ZCC, as well as ZCZ codes.
