Abstract:
An investigation into the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) performance of cyclic rotation complete complementary code division multiple access (CR-CC-CDMA) has been conducted. Additionally, a novel orthogonal signalling technique, referred to as complementary rotation keying (CRK), has been developed for improving the spectral efficiency (SE) of CC-CDMA whilst maintaining a low PAPR. The CRK system is based on the concept of CR of CC codes in order to allow interoperability with CR-CC-CDMA systems. To this end, both systems employ a similar transmitter and receiver structure.
The CR-CC-CDMA technique suffers from increased PAPR as SE per user is increased. The CRK system offers an improvement in SE, while maintaining the PAPR of a CC-CDMA system. The bit error rates of both systems were unaffected in a joint system, indicating complete interoperability. This allows dynamic adjustment of the PAPR and SE of any user in the system, with users being able to switch between both systems without causing multi user interference.
