本論文中提出在下行多載波分碼多重存取 (Multi Carrier-Code Division Multiple Access,簡稱MC-CDMA)系統中的用戶分組與適應性調變機制。在頻率選擇性衰減通道下,根據通道狀態資訊(channel state information)將用戶分配至衰減較小的群組後,可以增加系統頻譜效率與降低系統位元錯誤率。在用戶分組後,每位用戶依據通道狀態資訊調整所使用的調變與功率,讓基地台(Base station)在有限的傳送功率下能最大化系統的傳輸量,同時也能根據每位用戶的位元錯誤率門檻,讓所有用戶達到預期的位元錯誤率。比較本論文與參考文獻機制後,模擬結果顯示此論文在位元錯誤率與系統傳輸量皆優於參考文獻。
In this thesis, we propose a user grouping and adaptive modulation algorithm for downlink Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) systems. Under a frequency-selective fading channel, we adaptively classify users into groups by their channel state information (CSI) such that spectrum efficiency is improved and BER is reduced. After grouping, we assign bit loading and allocate transmission power for each user according to its effective channel response. Our scheme aims at maximizing total system data rate under the total power and users’ BER constraints. We also compare the performance of our scheme with the reference papers, and simulation results show that our scheme outperforms at bit error rate and data rate.
