Abstract
This letter investigates a transmitted signaling technique using orthogonal unified complex Hadamard transform (UCHT) spreading sequences and the coherent RAKE receiver in direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) downlinks to maintain the orthogonality between users and reduce the effect of multipath fading and interference from other users. A general multipath-fading channel model is assumed. System performance is evaluated by means of signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the RAKE receiver. It is shown that the SINR of the system employing UCHT complex sequences is independent of the phase offsets between different paths, while the SINR of the system using Walsh-Hadamard (WH) sequences is related to the squared cosine of path phase offsets. As a result, the bit-error ratio performance of the DS-CDMA downlink system employing UCHT complex sequences is better than that of the system with WH sequences at high SINRs
