Differential space-time modulation schemes for DS-CDMA systems

چکیده
Differential space-time modulation (DSTM) schemes were recently proposed to fully exploit the receive and transmit antenna diversities without the need for channel state information. DSTM is attractive in fast flat fading channels since accurate channel estimation is difficult to achieve. In this paper, we propose a new modulation scheme to improve the performance of DS-CDMA systems in fast time-dispersive fading channels, referred to as the differential space-time modulation for DS-CDMA (DST-CDMA). We present two new demodulation schemes, referred to as the differential space-time Rake receiver (DSTR) and differential space-time deterministic receiver (DSTD), respectively. DSTD exploits the known information of the spreading sequences and their delayed paths deterministically besides the Rake type combination. Consequently, it outperforms DSTR, which employs the Rake type combination only. The new modulation and demodulation schemes are especially suited for the fast fading down-link transmission in DS-CDMA systems employing multiple transmit antennas and one receive antenna.

–Space-time spreading (STS) is a promising scheme combining the ubiquitously employed code division multiple access (CDMA) with the emerging space-time block coding (STBC) technique. Almost all research results reported so far mainly focus on the STS schemes based on the full-rate STBC, which use either only two transmit antennas or real-modulations. However, the complex-modulation based STS sy...

Chaos based communications have drawn increasing attention over the past years. Chaotic signals are derived from non-linear dynamic systems. They are aperiodic, broadband and deterministic signals that appear random in the time domain. Because of these properties, chaotic signals have been proposed to generate spreading sequences for wide-band secure communication recently. Like conventional DS...
