This paper puts forward two novel user-grouping algorithms for grouped MC-CDMA systems. The adaptive assignment for user-grouping plays an important role for link quality. We formulate the capacity-maximizing problem of user-grouping and analysis the optimal criterion for it. The derived optimal criterion has a similar form with signal to noise plus interference (SINR), with unassigned power included. Thus the unassigned power leads to an unpractical usage. We then investigate user's equivalent SINR for minimum mean square error (MMSE) detection serving as assignment criterion, and propose two kinds of user-grouping algorithms. In these algorithms, only partial channel information is needed at the base station, which saves a large part of bandwidth occupying by feedback information. The proposed algorithms are evaluated by computer simulations to be prior to the conventional algorithm at both BER performance and data rate. Meanwhile, they have a lower implementation complexity for practical reality.

In this paper we consider the uplink transmission in MC-CDMA (multicarrier -coded division multiple access) systems. Since MC-CDMA signals are OFDM-like multicarrier signals, they have high envelope fluctuations and a high PMEPR (Peak-to-Mean Envelope Power Ratio) which leads to amplification difficulties. To reduce the envelope fluctuations of the transmitted signals, while maintaining the spectral efficiency, the MC-CDMA signal associated to each MT (mobile terminal) is submitted to a clipping device, followed by a frequency-domain filtering operation. However, the nonlinear distortion effects can be high when an MC-CDMA transmitter with reduced envelope fluctuations is intended. In this paper, we define an iterative receiver that jointly performs a turbo-MUD (Multiuser Detection) and the estimation and cancellation of the nonlinear distortion effects. The set of simulation results presented shows that the proposed receiver structure allows good performances, very close to the linear receiver ones, even for high system load and/or when a low-PMEPR is intended for each MT.

In this paper, a synchronous high-speed logic standard cells using bootstrapped technology for low temperature poly silicon thin film transistor -liquid crystal display (LTPS TFT-LCD) panel is proposed. The proposed TFT standard cells operate at high frequency region owing to the deep non-saturation operation by using the bootstrapped technology (BST). The proposed TFT standard cells can be reduced the pattern size by using the TFT capacitors for the bootstrapped capacitors. To confirm some characteristics of the proposed TFT standard cells, a full adder (FA) are simulated. As a result, the power delay products obtain about 1/5-9/10 times less value than that of the conventional standard cells using LTPS TFT.

In this paper, we propose a practical band estimation method for periodic superlattices by using semi-infinite periodic model, which is located in the middle of finite periodic model and infinite periodic model. According to the model proposed, we can estimate not only band structures but also ripples in passbands for periodic superlattices with simple calculation by applying image parameters in circuit theory. This model may be useful for energy filter designing, since the ripples in passbands are the essential information related with energy filter abilities.

Two topologies of SI comparator for low power current mode circuit implementation are presented. Employing different input stages, these two comparators are suitable to different application cases. Controlled by two complementary clock signals, the proposed comparator operates in a master and slave manner. Sharing a 0-static-power-dissipated dynamic latched comparator as the output comparators, both high power efficiency and high speed are acquired for these two comparators. Designed and simulated in TSMC 0.18 mum mixed signal CMOS technology with 1.8 V supply voltage, the proposed SI comparators achieve a current sensitivity up to 0.2 muA, and a sampling frequency up to 1 GHz, with 8.6 bits resolutions.

In this paper, we illustrate the use of importance sampling (IS) for efficient simulation of Turbo Codes over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. In particular, we show how to bias the probability density function (pdf) of the AWGN process using the most probable error path (MPEP) method in order to maximize the computational efficiency gain. The new noise pdf is designed based on the optimal biased distribution where zero variance estimator can be achieved. It is demonstrated that the proposed method requires much smaller sample sizes to achieve the same accuracy required by a conventional MC estimator.

Software radio development aims at wideband RF access and software partitioning for plug-and-play type of use. The development is facilitated by progress in silicon capabilities, silicon capabilities, signal processing power of new and future processors and reconfiguration methods (software download, smartcards, etc.). The future wireless and multimedia systems differ from old systems and from each other in terms of access methods, modulation, coding, etc. and they will also provide new type of services. This results in need for many product platforms unless we aren't able to design a common platform that could be programmed to different standards. The software radio is a good solution to this problem since it is reconfigurable to suit different standards at different continents. For this IS-95 CDMA technique is modified as a method of spread spectrum multiple access technique called frequency hopping/multiple carrier direct sequence-code division multiple access by Yang and Hanzo (2002) (FH/MC DS-CDMA). In this work, software defined radio (SDR) based FH/MC DS-CDMA transreceiver is proposed for future generation as well as existing generation Networks, which can carry multimedia applications at higher speed. Multiple carriers can be allotted as per user requirements with high secrecy and multiple encryptions. The performance analysis for the above scheme is shown supportive in terms of BER, power requirements, complexity, etc.

This paper proposes a computationally efficient method for designing a class of triplet halfband filter banks. We show that the design of perfect reconstruction two-channel Alter banks with arbitrary regularity order can be precisely formulated as a semi-definite programming problem. We also show that the dual problem has a significant smaller number of variables and, hence, can be solved efficiently. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the design examples of filter banks with high filter order and arbitrary regularity order.

The UMTS enhanced uplink enables the efficient transport of packet-switched Internet traffic. With bit rates comparable to DSL links, it is expected that best-effort services like file-sharing become increasingly popular in UMTS networks. These services are often volume-based, which means that the sojourn time of a connection depends on the transmitted data volume. In this work, we propose an analytic model for the interference and capacity in the enhanced Uplink, which considers the impact of volume-based traffic on system capacity, other-cell interference and co-existing time-based QoS users. The analytic model is validated with a flow-level event-discrete simulation.
