Abstract
This paper studies the impact of fast fading on the performance of coded convolutional spreading CDMA with cyclic prefix (CS-CDMA/CP) combined with iterative detection, which was originally proposed for multiuser interference-free (MUI-free) downlink transmission over a quasi-static multipath fading channel. We show that the CS-CDMA/CP system in conjunction with a single pilot, with zero-correlation-zone code from an M-sequence (M-ZCZ), and with iterative detection works also well for fast fading, and the impacts of Doppler spreads can be made negligible without bandwidth efficiency loss by the employment of excess channel spread configuration and iterative partial multiuser detection. We compare the proposed system and the standard W-CDMA system for downlink transmission by simulation and show that both systems enjoy time-diversity effects of fast fading and that, although the W-CDMA system performs better for a small number of users, the CS-CDMA/CP system performs much better for the number of users from moderate to as large as processing gain.
