ABSTRACT We generalize the total square correlation and the total weighted square correlation (TWSC) for a given signature set used in synchronous code division multiple access (S-CDMA) systems. We define the extended TWSC measure for multipath channels in the presence and the absence of the colored noise. The main results of this paper are the following: 1, the necessary and sufficient conditions of the received Gram matrix to maximize the sum capacity in the presence of multipath; 2, the conditions on the channel such that the received multipath sequences in the presence of the colored noise are Welch bound equality (WBE) sequences; 3, a decentralized method for obtaining generalized WBE sequences that minimize the TWSC in the presence of multipath and colored noise. Using this method, the optimal sequences, which achieve sum capacity for overloaded S-CDMA systems, in the presence of multipath are obtained. Numerical examples that illustrate the mathematical formalism are also included.

• ##### Article: Meeting the Welch Bound with Equality
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: . A signal set whose root-mean-square inner product magnitude equals the Welch lower bound is called a WBE signal set. WBE signal sets are of interest in synchronous CDMA communication systems. This chapter surveys the known results on WBE signal sets and extends them in several ways. In particular, WBE signal sets over signal alphabets whose size is a prime power (the most important case is the quaternary alphabet), and arbitrary-size WBE signal sets over small alphabets are constructed. Constructions are also described for signal sets whose maximum inner product magnitudes equal (or are only very slightly larger than) the Welch bound. Similarly, signal sets whose rootmean -square correlation magnitudes equal the Welch lower bound on correlations are of interest in asynchronous CDMA communication systems. It is shown that the root-mean-square correlation magnitude of all WBE signal sets (and many more) equals the Welch bound. Finally, the signal-to-noise ratio for CDMA communication s...

##### Article: Transmitter and receiver optimization in multicarrier CDMA systems
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We consider transmitter and receiver optimization in multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) systems under Rayleigh fading channels. Receiver optimization is performed in a decentralized manner, while transmitter optimization can be performed through either centralized or decentralized control of the powers of different carriers. Results show that when the number of users is smaller than or equal to the number of carriers, each transmitter often tends to concentrate its power on a different carrier which does not suffer deep fading. The MC-CDMA system then tends to a frequency-division multiple-access system with near-optimal frequency assignment. When the number of users gets large, each user tends to choose more than one carrier, which do not suffer deep fading, while interference suppression is performed across the chosen carriers by the corresponding receiver

##### Article: Iterative construction of optimum signature sequence sets in synchronous CDMA systems
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Optimum signature sequence sets that maximize the capacity of single-cell synchronous code division multiple access (CDMA) systems have been identified. Optimum signature sequences minimize the total squared correlation (TSC); they form a set of orthogonal sequences, if the number of users is less than or equal to the processing gain, and a set of Welch (1994) bound equality (WBE) sequences, otherwise. We present an algorithm where users update their transmitter signature sequences sequentially, in a distributed fashion, by using available receiver measurements. We show that each update decreases the TSC of the set, and produces better signature sequence sets progressively. We prove that the algorithm converges to a set of orthogonal signature sequences when the number of users is less than or equal to the processing gain. We observe and conjecture that the algorithm converges to a WBE set when the number of users is greater than the processing gain. At each step, the algorithm replaces one signature sequence from the set with the normalized minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receiver corresponding to that signature sequence. Since the MMSE filter can be obtained by a distributed algorithm for each user, the proposed algorithm is amenable to distributed implementation
