ECE 5221 Personal Communication Systems Prepared by: Dr. Ivica Kostanic Lecture 14: Frequency allocation and channelization Spring 2011
Outline • Orthogonal codes • Walsh / OVSF codes • M-codes (PN codes) • Use of codes in CDMA systems Important note: Slides present summary of the results. Detailed derivations are given in notes.
Walsh codes Generation of the Walsh code matrices • Orthogonal codes • Length – power of 2 (1,2,4,8,…) • Orthogonality maintained under perfect synchronization • Used for user channelization when the synchronization between the users can be maintained • On the DL of the cellular system Example of WC sequence generation:
Walsh code orthogonality • Code is given as a row in WC matrix • To generate a code • “0” -> “1” • “1” -> “-1” • Example: Codes W4,2 and W4,3 • W8,2 : (0,0,1,1,0,0,1,1) -> (1,1,-1,-1,1,1,-1,-1) • W8,3 : (0,1,1,0,0,1,1,0) -> (1,-1,-1,1,1,-1,-1,1) When synchronized – codes are orthogonal When out of sync – codes are not orthogonal
M codes (PN codes) • Have “noise like” auto-correlation properties • Generated as output of shift registers that have taps indicated by primitive polynomials • Taps need to be in “special places” • Location of taps for different code lengths: http://www.newwaveinstruments.com/resources/articles/m_sequence_linear_feedback_shift_register_lfsr.htm Shift register for generation of binary sequence
M sequences - properties 1. An m-bit register produces an m-sequence of period 2m-1. 2. An m-sequence contains exactly 2(m-1) ones and 2(m-1)-1 zeros. 3. The modulo-2 sum of an m-sequence and another phase (i.e. time-delayed version) of the same sequence yields yet a third phase of the sequence. 3a. (A corollary of 3.) Each stage of an m-sequence generator runs through some phase of the sequence. (While this is obvious with a Fibonacci LFSR, it may not be with a Galois LFSR.) 4. A sliding window of length m, passed along an m-sequence for 2m-1 positions, will span every possible m-bit number, except all zeros, once and only once. That is, every state of an m-bit state register will be encountered, with the exception of all zeros. 5. Define a run of length r to be a sequence of r consecutive identical numbers, bracketed by non-equal numbers. Then in any m-sequence there are: 1 run of ones of length m.1 run of zeros of length m-1.1 run of ones and 1 run of zeros, each of length m-2.2 runs of ones and 2 runs of zeros, each of length m-3.4 runs of ones and 4 runs of zeros, each of length m-4.…2m-3 runs of ones and 2m-3 runs of zeros, each of length 1. 6. If an m-sequence is mapped to an analog time-varying waveform, by mapping each binary zero to 1 and each binary one to -1, then the autocorrelation function for the resulting waveform will be unity for zero delay, and -1/(2m-1) for any delay greater that one bit, either positive or negative in time. The shape of the autocorrelation function between -1 bit and +1 bit will be triangular, centered around time 0. That is, the function will rise linearly from time = -(one-bit) to time 0, and then decline linearly from time 0 to time = +(one-bit).
Circular autocorrelation of PN sequence PN sequence of length N: Circular autocorrelation: Note: PN sequences are practically orthogonal to their delayed versions For PN sequences Consider N=15 sequence in the attached spreadsheet
Use of CDMA in cellular systems • Coding different on UL and DL • DL – 2 levels of coding • Within each cell – users separated by Walsh codes • Cells – separated by different PN codes • On the UL • Users separated by PN codes • Additional level of coding usually added for encryption purposes CDMA DL Note: WC used to separate synchronized transmissions, PN used to separate asynchronous transmission CDMA UL
