Diversity is an influential communication technique that combats fading by exploiting the random nature of the wireless channel and finding independent signal paths between the transmitter and the receiver. In WiMAX PHY, diversity techniques such as time diversity, frequency diversity and antenna diversity are used to improve performance. The main objectives of this thesis are to improve diversity performance in WiMAX PHY

 في هذه الورقة، تم تحسين أداء النفوذ المتعدد بالتقسيم لرمز السلسلة المباشر متعدد الموجات (MC-DS-CDMA) في تطبيقات MC-DS-CDMA الثابتة والتطبيقات MC-DS-CDMA  المتنقلة باستعمال تعويضات التشفير الزمنية الفضائية وتحويل فورير السريعة المنفصلة (FFT) أو تحويل المويجات المنفصلة DWT. وقد تمت محاكاة أنظمة MC-DS-CDMA  باستخدام ماتلاب 2015a. من خلال محاكاة النظام المقترح، يمكن تغيير المعالم المختلفة واختبارها. ويتم الحصول على معدل خطأ البيانات (BER) لهذه الأنظمة على مدى واسع من نسبة الإشارة إلى الضوضاء. وقد قورنت جميع نتائج المحاكاة مع بعضها البعض باستخدام حجم الموجة الحاملة الفرعية المختلفة FFT أو DWT مع ل STBC 1،2،3 و 4 هوائيات في المرسل وفي مختلف قنوات الخبو في متعددة الممرات ITU ومختلف ترددات دوبلر (fd).In this paper, the performance of multicarrier direct sequence code division multiple access (MC-DS-CDMA) in fixed MC-DS-CDMA and Mobile MC-DS-CDMA applications have been improved by using the compensations of space time block coding and Discrete Fast Fourier transforms (FFT) or Discrete Wavelets transform DWT. These MC-DS-CDMA systems had been simulated using MATLAB 2015a. Through simulation of the proposed system, various parameters can be changed and tested. The Bit Error Rate (BERs) of these systems are obtained over wide range of signal to noise ratio. All simulation results had been compared with each other using different subcarrier size of FFT or DWT with STBC for 1,2,3 and 4 antennas in transmitter and under different ITU multipath fading channels and different Doppler frequencies (fd). The proposed structures of STBC-MC-DS-CDMA system based on (DWT) batter than based on (FFT) in varies Doppler frequencies and subcarrier size. Also, proposed system with STBC based on 4 transmitters better than other systems based on 1 or 2 or 3 transmitters in all Doppler frequencies and subcarrier size in all simulation results

An Investigation of Orthogonal Wavelet Division Multiplexing Techniques as an Alternative to Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Transmissions and Comparison of Wavelet Families and Their Children

Recently, issues surrounding wireless communications have risen to prominence because of the increase in the popularity of wireless applications. Bandwidth problems, and the difficulty of modulating signals across carriers, represent significant challenges. Every modulation scheme used to date has had limitations, and the use of the Discrete Fourier Transform in OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) is no exception. The restriction on further development of OFDM lies primarily within the type of transform it uses in the heart of its system, Fourier transform. OFDM suffers from sensitivity to Peak to Average Power Ratio, carrier frequency offset and wasting some bandwidth to guard successive OFDM symbols. The discovery of the wavelet transform has opened up a number of potential applications from image compression to watermarking and encryption. Very recently, work has been done to investigate the potential of using wavelet transforms within the communication space. This research will further investigate a recently proposed, innovative, modulation technique, Orthogonal Wavelet Division Multiplex, which utilises the wavelet transform opening a new avenue for an alternative modulation scheme with some interesting potential characteristics. Wavelet transform has many families and each of those families has children which each differ in filter length. This research consider comprehensively investigates the new modulation scheme, and proposes multi-level dynamic sub-banding as a tool to adapt variable signal bandwidths. Furthermore, all compactly supported wavelet families and their associated children of those families are investigated and evaluated against each other and compared with OFDM. The linear computational complexity of wavelet transform is less than the logarithmic complexity of Fourier in OFDM. The more important complexity is the operational complexity which is cost effectiveness, such as the time response of the system, the memory consumption and the number of iterative operations required for data processing. Those complexities are investigated for all available compactly supported wavelet families and their children and compared with OFDM. The evaluation reveals which wavelet families perform more effectively than OFDM, and for each wavelet family identifies which family children perform the best. Based on these results, it is concluded that the wavelet modulation scheme has some interesting advantages over OFDM, such as lower complexity and bandwidth conservation of up to 25%, due to the elimination of guard intervals and dynamic bandwidth allocation, which result in better cost effectiveness
