An Adaptive FH/MC-CDMA to Improve Channel Quality for Multiuser Using Variable Code-Based Carriers

Abstract

Abstract The adaptive variable code-based carriers for multiusers in a common channel of communication is a technique of Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA). It is an advanced mode of communication, where multiple users are communicating with different code and a different carrier. The proposed adaptive frequency hopping technique in MC-CDMA will give high signal to noise ratio value mitigating multiple access interference. Proposed adaptive technique detects multi-users with the help of matched filters. The simulation of the above system is done with correlated sub-carriers in the presence of realistic fading channels and even imperfect channel state information for recovering at the transmitter. The performance of an improved allocation algorithm for MC-CDMA system with adaptive frequency hopping is investigated. Imperfect channel state information at the base station does not affect the performance of the proposed technique due to the combined allocation algorithm and multi-user detector employment. The above combination mitigates multiple access interference efficiently, and increases the system capacity in a significant way compared to non-adaptive variable code-based carrier system. The results of the simulation confirm the above said performance factors with realistic correlated sub carriers that are faded with practical communication system parameters.
