An Overview of MAI Reduction Techniques For MC-CDMA System
Biru S. Bhanavase, Bipeen B. Patil · 2013
Abstract— MC-CDMA is the most promising technique for high bit rate and high capacity transmission in wireless communication. Multi-carrier code division multiple access (MCCDMA) has been considered as a strong candidate for next generation wireless communication system due to its excellent performance in multi-path fading channel and simple receiver structure. During asynchronous transmission, multiple access interference (MAI) is a major challenge for MC-CDMA and significantly affects their performance. This paper describes the various MAI reduction techniques for MC- CDMA system. Index Terms— Multi-carrier code division multiple access (MCCDMA), Multiple access interference (MAI).
