A Huffman sequence has a zero-sidelobe aperiodic autocorrelation function except at both shift ends. This paper presents orthogonal sets of the zero correlation zone (ZCZ) Huffman sequences and the application to a quasi-synchronous CDMA system with interferences suppressed. The sequences with low or large peak values are constructed on the basis of sequence spectra corresponding to multiple convolution of elementary sequences, and include the ZCZ sequences. The CDMA system is constructed from the ZCZ sequences, and suppresses intersymbol and interchannel interferences.

With the growing demand for mobile communications, multicarrier (MC) schemes are receiving an increasing amount of attention, primarily because they handle frequency selective channels better than ordinary single-carrier schemes. However, despite offering several advantages, MC systems have certain weak points. One is their high sensitivity to interchannel interference (ICI). The influence of Doppler shift and ICI are the focus of this paper. Newly proposed B3G/4G systems are developed for data transmission rates higher than those of the IEEE 801.11. It is then necessary that the bandwidth of the subcarrier be small. Moreover, for a higher carrier frequency and mobile speed, the influence of the Doppler shift will be large; therefore, the influence of ICI becomes severer. Using a Markov chain approach, we synthesized a turbo equalizer (TE) that minimizes ICI when interference affects the arbitrary number M of adjacent subchannels. This approach shows the complexity of the proposed algorithm exhibits linear growth with respect to M and independence with respect to the total number of subchannels in the multicarrier system. The proposed ICI cancellation scheme can also be effective in the case of multiple Doppler frequency offsets. This makes the proposed approach attractive for practical implementations.

In this letter, we propose a recursive space time decoding method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems exploiting multiple transmit antenna diversity when the channels are fast fading. We first develop a computationally efficient space-time decoding method involving a matrix inversion to mitigate the channel variation effect. We then further reduce the computational complexity of the matrix inversion decoding method via a recursive formulation. Computer simulation results show that the proposed recursive decoding has much better BER performance than Alamouti decoding, requiring much less computation than the matrix inversion decoding. Moreover, the relative advantage in BER performance of the proposed scheme over Alamouti decoding stands out as the Doppler frequency increases.

Rapid time variations of the mobile communication channel have a dramatic impact on the performance of multicarrier modulation. This letter analyzes the effect of the Doppler-induced interchannel interference (ICI) on a space-time block coded (STBC) OFDM-CDMA system in a time-varying Rayleigh fading channel. At the same time, we compute the effect of the ICI on the BER performance of the STBC OFDM-CDMA system using the maximal ratio combining (MRC) and equal gain combining (EGC) schemes.
With the growing demand for mobile communications, multicarrier (MC) schemes are receiving an increasing amount of attention, primarily because they handle frequency selective channels better than ordinary single-carrier schemes. However, despite offering several advantages, MC systems have certain weak points. One is a high sensitivity to interchannel interference (ICI). Using a Markov chain approach, we synthesized an optimal receiver for a situation where interference affects three adjacent subchannels. Simulation results showed that the proposed 'turbo scheme' provided better BER performance than a conventional receiver, especially at higher signal-to-noise ratios. The implementation of the turbo algorithm is independent of the transmitted signal, providing complete OFDM reception compatibility.
