Abstract

For future mobile communications, an appropriately chosen multiple access scheme is a critical issue. To support robust frequency planning, multi-operator scenarios, system coexistence and hierarchical cell structures, frequency division multiple access (FDMA) and multicarrier techniques are viable choices. Further multiple access schemes presently under discussion are code division multiple access (CDMA) and time division multiple access (TDMA). A mobile radio system concept deploying a hybrid frequency and time divided code division multiple access (F/T/CDMA) scheme with a multicarrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) component, called MC/JD-CDMA, is proposed and performance results for the uplink are presented. Attractive features of the proposed system concept are the possibility to flexibly offer voice and data services with different bit rates, soft capacity, as well as inherent frequency and interferer diversity.
