A method to partially suppress ISI and MAI for DS SS CDMA wireless networks
Beata Joanna Wysocki, Tadeusz Antoni Wysocki · 2002
We propose a method to partially suppress ISI and MAI for DS SS CDMA schemes in wireless LANs. The method can be regarded as an alternative approach to combat ISI and in particular MAI by the use of advanced multiuser detection. Instead of using very sophisticated detectors, we propose introduction of a simple modification to the carrier waveform which results in very substantial reduction in cross-correlation between users and an off-peak auto-correlation. The method can be applied to any DS SS CDMA scheme, but should be particularly useful in the case of short spreading signatures, as is the case of WLANs.
