Abstract

Multicode multi-carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) is a promising candidate for supporting multimedia services in future wireless communications. However, the performance of this system is limited by self-interference (SI) of user's multicodes and multi-user interference (MUI). In this paper, to mitigate this problem, a minimum mean square error successive interference cancellation (MMSE-SIC) receiver is applied in multicode MC-CDMA. Furthermore, to increase the efficiency of SIC, a simple power distribution control (PDC) algorithm, based on equal BER criterion, is investigated under a short-term constraint of average transmit power. In correlated Rayleigh fading channels, the MMSE-SIC receiver integrated with the equal BER PDC can suppress interference effectively, resulting in a performance close to the single user bound (SUB).
