Abstract
In this paper, the inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) results of oversampled Walsh Hadamard (WH) sequences and WH-based complementary (CP) sequences are derived, based on which, the peak factors (PF) of MC-CDMA signals are investigated for both the two sequence sets. The upper bounds of PF for both BPSK and QPSK modulation are presented in this paper and the PF bounds presented in B.J. Choi and L. Hanzo (2003) can be regarded as special cases of the bounds derived here. Compared with accurate computing which requires prohibitive computations, the upper bounds obtained provide a more effective way to estimate the PF of BPSK and QPSK modulated MC-CDMA signals employing WH or WH-based CP sequences. In addition, based on the IDFT properties of WH sequences, a simplified search for optimum WH subset in the context of BPSK modulation is derived.
