CDMA: Past, Present, and Future • The origins of spread spectrum are in military field and navigation systems • In 1949, John Pierce wrote a technical memorandum where he described a multiplexing system in which a common medium carries coded signals that need not be synchronized. This system can be classified as a time hopping spread spectrum multiple access system • In 1949, Claude Shannon and Robert Pierce introduced the basic ideas of CDMA by describing the interference averaging effect and the graceful degradation of CDMA • In 1950, De Rosa-Rogoff proposed a direct sequence spread spectrum system and introduced the processing gain equation and noise multiplexing idea
CDMA: Past, Present, and Future • In 1956, Price and Green filed for the anti-multipath "RAKE" patent . Signals arriving over different propagation paths can be resolved by a wideband spread spectrum signal and combined by the RAKE receiver. • In 1961 ,The near-far problem (i.e., a high interference overwhelming a weaker spread spectrum signal) was first mentioned by Magnuski • For cellular application spread spectrum was suggested by Cooper and Nettleton in 1978 • During the 1980s Qualcomm investigated DS-CDMA techniques, which finally led to the commercialization of cellular spread spectrum communications in the form of the narrowband CDMA IS-95 standard in July 1993 • Commercial operation of IS-95 systems started in 1996.
CDMA: Past, Present, and Future • Multiuser detection (MUD) has been subject to extensive research since 1986 when Verdu formulated an optimum multiuser detection for the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel, maximum likelihood sequence estimator (MLSE) • During the 1990s ,wideband CDMA techniques with a bandwidth of 5 MHz or more have been studied intensively throughout the world, and several trial systems have been built and tested • Based on the above description, the CDMA era is divided into three periods: 1. the pioneer CDMA era 2. the narrowband CDMA era 3. the wideband CDMA era

GSM DAMPS • CDMA:Code division multiple access Feature:In CDMA each user is assigned a unique code sequence it uses to encode its information-bearing signal IS-95/CDMA2000 /WCDMA/TD-SCDMA
Description of CDMA • The spreading signal is a pseudo-noise code sequence that has a chip rate which is greater than the data rate of the message. • All CDMA users occupy the same frequency at the same time! Frequency and time are not used as discriminators. • In cdma systems,the narrowband message signal is multiplied by a very large bandwidth signal called the spreading signal. • CDMA operates by using CODING to discriminate between users. • Each user has its own pseudorandom codeword which is approximately orthogonal to all other codewords. • CDMA interference comes mainly from nearby users • The receiver performs a time correlation operation to detect only the specific desired codeword.All other codewords appear as noise due to decorrelation.
How does CDMA work? • Sender combines data with a fast spreading sequence, transmits spread data stream • Receiver intercepts the stream, uses same spreading sequence to extract original data
Principle of spread-spectrum multiple access • Code signal consists of a number of code bits called "chips" that can be either +1 or 1. • Chip rate of the code signal must be much higher than the rate of the information signal. • In this figure, 10 code chips per information symbol are transmitted (the code chip rate is 10 times the data rate) so the processing gain is equal to 10.

Receiver of a DS-SS signal Receiver of a DS-SS signal • The receiver uses coherent demodulation to despread the SS signal, using a locally generated code sequence. • To be able to perform the despreading operation, the receiver must not only know the code sequence used to spread the signal, but the codes of the received signal and the locally generated code must also be synchronized. • This synchronization must be accomplished at the beginning of the reception and maintained until the whole signal has been received. • The code synchronization/tracking block performs this operation • After despreading a data modulated signal results, and after demodulation the original data can be recovered.

Spreading spectrum Sequences(PN) - Property of PN - m-sequences -Walsh Code
Property of PN • Correlation - The Rule of Sequence design • The ideal Sequence: • The side peak value of auto-correlation(ACF) is zero • The value of cross-correlation(CCF) is zero • Ideal Sequence can eliminate co-channel interference(MAI) Unfortunately,We can’t find the ideal sequence So,our target is to find such sequence: The smaller of the side peak value of auto-correlation and the value of cross-correlation ,the better of the sequence. Auto-correlation Function Cross-correlation Function
Definition of ACF and CCF Periodic sequence The Periodic ACF: The Periodic CCF:
m-sequences • Good periodic ACF properties • Bad periodic CCF properties • CDMA operates by using different offset of the same m-sequence to discriminate between users for the bad periodic CCF properties • In IS-95 and IS2000 standard ,two kinds m-sequences are used: short code and long code • The m-sequences are generated using shift register • The normative ACF of m-sequence:
An Example of periodic ACF of m-sequence • length 15 m-sequence (- - - -+ - + - - + + - + + +) here , - means 1,+means -1
Walsh Code- orthogonal sequence Walsh codes are generated by applying Hadamard transform upon 0 repeatedly. Hadamard transform is given by • most important feature: Orthogonal Walsh Sequence is Orthogonal when synchronized. ACF and CCF of Walsh Sequence are not ideal when not synchronized. • Walsh function Set is self-contained. Walsh Sequence with Length n= can constitute n= Sequences orthogonal one another.
Features of CDMA- Multiple Access Capability- Protection Against Multipath Interference- Privacy- Interference Rejection- Anti-Jamming Capability, Especially Narrowband Jamming- Low Probability of Interception(LPI)
Multiple Access Capability • If multiple users transmit a spread-spectrum signal at the same time, the receiver will still be able to distinguish between the users provided each user has a unique code that has a sufficiently low cross-correlation with the other codes. • Correlating the received signal with a code signal from a certain user will then only despread the signal of this user, while the other spread-spectrum signals will remain spread over a large bandwidth. • Within the information bandwidth the power of the desired user will be larger than the interfering power provided there are not too many interferers, and the desired signal can be extracted. • At the receiver 1 only the signal of user 1 is "despread" and the data recovered. Principle of spread-spectrum multiple access
Protection Against Multipath Interference • The signals of the different paths are all copies of the same transmitted signal but with different amplitudes, phases, delays, and arrival angles. • Adding these signals at the receiver will be constructive at some of the frequencies and destructive at others. In the time domain, this results in a dispersed signal. • If the code sequence has an ideal autocorrelation function, then the correlation function is zero outside the interval [Tc,Tc], where Tc is the chip duration. This means that if the desired signal and a version that is delayed for more than 2Tc are received, coherent demodulation will treat the delayed version as an interfering signal, putting only a small part of the power in the information bandwidth.
Privacy • Privacy -- The transmitted signal can only be despread and the data recovered if the code is known to the receiver.
Interference Rejection • Cross-correlating the code signal with a narrowband signal will spread the power of the narrowband signal thereby reducing the interfering power in the information bandwidth. • The spread-spectrum signal (s) receives a narrowband interference (i). At the receiver the SS signal is "despread" while the interference signal is spread, making it appear as background noise compared to the despread signal. Interference rejection
Anti-Jamming Capability • This is more or less the same as interference rejection except the interference is now willfully inflicted on the system. It is this property, together with the next one-LPI, that makes spread-spectrum modulation attractive for military applications.
Low Probability of Interception(LPI) S(f) Signal • Because of its low power density, the spread-spectrum signal is difficult to detect and intercept by a hostile listener.
