Single and Multi-Carrier Ds-Cdma Multi-User Detection, Space-Time Spreading, Synchronisation, Networking and Standards

Since the standardisation of 3G systems significant advances have been made in the field of CDMA systems. The next generation of wireless systems is expected to support a wide variety of multirate services, while achieving an increased spectral efficiency, a high bit rate and satisfying a range of many other demanding specifications. This all-in-one volume reports on the entire body of recent advances in both single- and multi-carrier DS-CDMA as follows: Presents a future-proof system design framework providing backwards compatibility with legacy systems Features multiuser detection and interference cancellation, spanning the range of classic and avant-garde CDMA solutions, including genetic algorithm aided systems for blind data and channel estimation Covers burst-by-burst adaptive CDMA and blind per-survivor aided CDMA Details the entire body of joint coding and modulation aided CDMA, as well as adaptive space-time spreading Explains both classic and radically new coded M-ary CDMA Includes the body of knowledge on time-frequency spreading aided multicarrier DS-CDMA and code acquisition Describes the existing 3G standards and cross-layer optimization aided adaptive modulation as well as beamforming assisted FDD/TDD networking Such a comprehensive treatment of the subject will have wide-ranging appeal to researchers, advanced students and practising engineers working in wireless communications.Hanzo, Lajos is the author of 'Single and Multi-Carrier Ds-Cdma Multi-User Detection, Space-Time Spreading, Synchronisation, Networking and Standards' with ISBN 9780470863091 and ISBN 0470863099.
